Special rank for scripters?

Ramono · **Author**

I remember when http://www.amxmodx.org/forums was still online.
All scipters had a special rank:
"AMXX Scriptkiddy"

Thanks,
Ramon.

Can you determine the coding expirience by the number of posts? ... the old system was quite weird.

> 2 Approved plugins ?

There are good scripters here that don't release that many plugins, so no. If anything this would be up to DEVs/Moderators.

That rank was the rank you got for signing up, it had nothing to do with whether you could script or not.

ScriptyKiddy:
A person, generally a novice computer user that learned a neat trick and suddenly gained a rather large ego, that uses programs and scripts written by others to attempt to get access to other peoples' computers.

In computing, a script kiddie (occasionally script bunny or script kitty) is a derogatory term for inexperienced crackers who use scripts and programs developed by others for the purpose of compromising computer accounts and files, and for launching attacks on whole computer systems (see DoS). In general, they do not have the ability to write said programs on their own. Such programs have included WinNuke applications and Back Orifice.

It was automatically done by the forums depending on how many posts you had (i.e. you may have 1337 posts and be called a Gaben Master). Also, keep in mind that can't easily be done now seeing how this has combined with other forums (SHM and MM:S).

I was AMXX experienced but I only ported 2 plugins.

Custom ranks (i.e. Freecode's 'The One And Only Freecode' or asskic'rs 'Coding Monkey' ranks are custom assigned by admins and are NOT automatic).
