I believe the whole "install" feature should be abadoned.

Just like you, some of us have offered solution(s). Not only pertaining to the "install" issue but to alot of things.

I think we need a system that will demote usertitles not just promote (based on user actions).
Yes, I also agree on this.

Number on downloads would mean the number of installs the person gets, not necessarily meaning the person actually installed the hack.

As this would give credit to the author of the hack and would limit the number of downloads, the author would also need to explain their first post better and post screenshots :)

So if installs don't matter, remove it entirely. Of course not, because they do matter, in many ways. Why deny that? I don't understand.
Installs served a function in the past, but now the only function they will serve is to give some idea how many people are using and subscribing to the updates of the hack...

The title system will be changing to include other factors other than just install counts - Thats all I will say for now, but some titles will only be awarded manually not automatically with the new system...

That's good to hear. I just hope it isn't shrouded in unnecessary secrecy. We can't live up to standards or strive for achieve goals we aren't aware of.

Chris M 05-15-2006 04:25 PM
It won't be shrouded in secrecy, but the current elements and factors which will affect your title are still somewhat undecided ;)

Therefore, instead of posting some requirements at this stage that may no longer be a factor in the final system change, its better to be as vague about what factors will be included :)

/me always clicks install on his own hacks to increase the install count, and because a hack with zero install looks so stupid.

Hey, I didn't know the '/ me' hack was installed here. BTW: It doesn't work in subscription emails - just an FYI to whoever's version you are using.

Chris M 05-15-2006 04:53 PM
