Well, that's not really what I was trying to imply...I recall when I first got the "Contributor" title, I was quite happy about it.
As I released more and more products, I began to notice that each release level was noticeably more difficult to get than the previous, and after some digging around I found one of Paul's posts explaining that the formula for determining a user's release level is pretty extensive, many factors are involved, and as far as installs go, this follows an exponential curve. IIRC, Paul said it is twice as difficult to get to the next level as it was to get to the current level. Much like how the frequencies of musical notes are related to a musical scale...where getting to the next level is like climbing an octave.
I think this makes a great deal of sense mathematically, and is an appropriate model to use. :up:
