One thing I DO miss is the ability to see how many people have downloaded the attachments. Many people don't click install, and I always prefered the downloaded stats.
how about a UCP option "don't show me in install lists" checked default to all members.

I can do that in my usercp. not sure you mean unique members
Put it this way, if a hack has a security exploit, and a bad person finds out, if there is a list, he can very easily go to each site and attempt to exploit the loophole.
Hence why there is no list, and why the old list which we had was removed. (Members didn't want to be on the list too - they contacted to be removed, but still wanted to get hack updates).
The hack author can still see who has installed his hack, but we assume the hack author is not a bad person.
Erwin, doesn't any of you guys (vbulletin.org) at least find it curious that you have to go to these lenghts, while vbuleltin.com doesn't do any of that? There has been exploits to vbulletin in the past, and they have never delisted any of the forums on their directory, in sigs, or in user profiles....
When vbulletin has an exploit, they just post a release in the announcement area, that's it.
If those who contacted you to remove that hack had the courtesy to just not flaunt their URL in their profile and sigs, the rest of us don't have to deal with their paranoia.

In that case a list CAN be provided for the HACK AUTHOR ONLY.
That's what were saying all the time already. Or have I missed something? :ermm:
The numerous replies stating that even giving the only hack author access to the list of names is not going to happen. And if it ever will be done, then it will for sure not be until 3.5 Gold and will have a very low priority.
