That isn't a bad system, but I have had problems with that in the past as well. Oftentimes there will be groups of inactive players that make it painful to move up the ladder. Some programs have it set so if a player doesn't respond within 3 days or something, then they lose the match, but new players don't really like to have to wait 6 or 9 days sometimes to move up far enough so they are challenging active players. There would have to be a counter to this as well.
My system monitors inactivity as well, all admin set. So if a challenge remains un-responded to after X amount of days/hours, it is deleted (auto-forfeits do not bode well with players) Any unconfirmed match results, are always flagged, and addressed by the ladder staff.

The key issue is, as great a mod as this might be for many communities, it is not FOR every community. Ladders are time intensive and require high management skills, as well as a dedicated userbase.

Users can be fed up with a limited ladder very fast. I can only hope no one is considering using this on a live board anytime soon. It has great potential, and would only be hampered by people rushing into it too fast.

Great add-on. If I don't want the "Ladders" link displaying on my navbar, how can I remove it from being displayed?

Answer to my own question: disable the plugin itself (it looks like you made an auto-template insertion manually). Another question:

-- Any thoughts on integrating the Ladders front-page and the Tournaments front-page to a single, super front-page for all Ladders & Tournaments?

Another question:

How can I remove users from the Ladder once they have been added?

well done bud. I've been waiting for this for many years. If you need help with any graphics let me know.

Found a bug: users who don't have the permission to "join" a Ladder get a white/blank page when they try to challenge a player, or view any challenges. Can we get an error message going instead?

Also, can we get an error message to prevent people who aren't in a ladder from challenging people who are?

I hope they fix his vbulletin hosting soon, I'm really looking forward to team support and the progression of this mod! :)

I have a suggestion of adding some sort of ladder profile. Like when you click on a member or team from the ladder page, instead of instantly challenging them, it takes you to a profile of them, which has thinks like stats, challenges, match history, banner/logo, etc.

Members are asking to be notified via pm when a challenge has been made, anyway to get this added?

Thanks
