How did we go off topic and how was I being selfish when I was referring to the hackers here as well as the members?

I never stated anyone was being selfish.. I am only pointing out that too often people care more about their personal stats than they do about the people using their statistical building blocks..

Also, this is OT because it has nothing to do with the posters question. No need to take offense or freak out or get wadded shorts over a comment.. It is my own personal observation of this place and some of the people therein..

Ok, ok, let's call a truce here. All I was stating was that the hackers that do supply code here ask nothing in return but a little appreciation and consideration for all of their efforts. Not just until a new version comes out when they're hacks are no longer needed. The hack count is just a small sign of respect and appreciation for a job well done and I don't think it's right to take that away from them because it makes it easier on you, the member, to read a list. Some of these hacks were not real easy to write and most good hackers won't complain about it so why should anyone else? If we could all do a little less complaining about the unimportant things and show a litle more appreciation for what's at hand, the site would run a lot smoother and people would be a lot happier. Don't you agree?

I guess everyone has their own opinion on the issue..
I can appreciate that the install numbers are a token of appreciation and respect for the coder's work.. At the same time if I'd released a major hack, I'd want to know a more accurate figure of how many people were actively using it instead of how many people appreciated my work by clicking install and not using it.

i left my installs alone. If upgraded to vb3 and i use them. 'I would reinstall them'. I do like the idea of uninstalling all. I myself use the who installed as a origination tool.

I think Dean C's suggestion would work best

Seperate them by vb2 and vb3 list.

That way those that still use vb2 can see the "popularity" of it, as well as it'll encourage those writers to updates their hack for vb3.

While letting those of us in vb3, skim through just our vb3 hacks without having to sort through the jumble of vb2
