Your system is flawed
You guys have a "release level 7" user that shouldn't even be in the top 20 IMHO
and users in the "level 5" that should be at the top..lmao
1$... damn, Paul, members are not generous with ya.. lol
actually, having a real display of power for theses releases instead of just a ranking would be good on a "release-only" community.. but on site like here, i don't see why we have these... i'm a level 0, but i have more than 30 000 lines of codes released in the last 6 years... and most of the features i created with my addons are now integrated into the core - or - re-released by others...
I'm pretty certain it is a release level for releases here on vBulletin.org ;]
But on another note i think it would be cool to add to this with a clickable username which is like the one in post's, so it brings a drop down menu with a sub header then a link to their profile then another sub header with say "Release stats" then the body being:
Install:
Releases:
Favourited by: (Allow users the choice to have a favourite modder)
Been a modder for: (Time from 1st release to last update)
The so called top-secret algorithm, should be transformed into a human choice, where people should vote. IMO, a piece of code should/could not decide if a hacker is good.
I think the install numbers shall be taken off. If coders release their work for free why do they care about how many members install their mod ? I seriously find install numbers same as children ball counts.

As stated numerous times before, it's not a measure of how good someone may be, it's called release level for a reason - it's a measure of your modification activity (releases) here on vb.org.

Yep, exactly right (see above).

You may not be interested, others are. The system will remain.

the system is flawed in soo many ways it's silly. how many instances do we have where we have user making a new release for every version of the same hack rather then just updating the original hack thread? that's just one of the MAJOR flaws. just this morning i noticed one user with 4 different releases of the SAME HACK. go figure that one out. if i cared more, i'd go into more.

How come nobody with a hack that has a thousand installs ever makes this argument?
