I rather resent that remark. It mirrors the usual arrogance of Coders. Being a Builder myself, I work harder than most imms. In my opinion the zones are just as important for a mud as the code. I have an imp position with full shell access. You are sort of implying that Builders don't deserve an imp position.
As for Ritaker's mud, they might well have been developing it for quite some time, and just want more coders to speed up the work. If that is the case I can well understand why a new coder wouldn't automatically get a top position.
That said, hiring coders 'from the street' is a rather dumb and extremely risky thing to do. It still amazes me why mud owners trust people they don't even know the first thing about with full shell access, and then complain on Discussion boards a couple of months later, because the mud was stolen, lock stock and barrel, from under their very nose.
