Ah, I didn't know about the points threshold, thanks!

It is, or was, 500 points.

Sanddancer | karma 5346 | avg karma 2.91 · | 2014-01-17 21:58:10

500 points.

aldoushuxley001 | karma -10 | avg karma -0.02 · | 2018-07-22 01:57:19+00:00

above 500 points or something, I believe

kgermino | karma 2951 | avg karma 3.67 · | 2010-05-07 23:34:53

Yes, the minimum is at 200pts currently

jacquesm | karma 227883 | avg karma 3.76 · | 2016-07-11 20:09:14+00:00

400 or 500 points, I forgot which. Maybe someone with something between those two can tell?

gus_massa | karma 17133 | avg karma 1.44 · | 2010-02-01 22:29:28+00:00

You need at least 30 point to see it. (The threshold can change and perhaps it is higher now.)

Yes, 200 points I believe.

Let this reach 500 points :D

minimaxir | karma 67739 | avg karma 7.48 · | 2020-12-18 21:19:44

It needs atleast 3 points IIRC.

grappler | karma 2645 | avg karma 10.25 · | 2022-05-07 18:27:45

It's now 700 points

fernandotakai | karma 2266 | avg karma 3.14 · | 2015-08-19 16:45:22

you also need a specific number of points.

eru | karma 30335 | avg karma 1.29 · | 2008-01-12 07:28:09+00:00

21 points needed to enter the list. Should be doable.

scandinavian | karma 510 | avg karma 3.42 · | 2015-10-13 13:00:16

What's more, it has 4 points currently.

baud147258 | karma 3685 | avg karma 1.46 · | 2019-09-02 16:31:21+00:00

It's 125 points, which can be acquired with, for example, 63 edits, which have to be validated by other users.

It's even less ‘elite’ — I have < 500 points and see a ‘vouch’ link on dead comments. The FAQ doesn't state the exact threshold; I'd guess it's 100 (at most).

klausa | karma 2517 | avg karma 4.97 · | 2012-02-29 18:09:51+00:00

314 points + 6 bonus.
