wich mod do ya all mean by "stop following my...." ?


##########################################

what is important i think is to add all mods that are related to security !?

##########################################


hm, and the question about the changing of the most downloaded list is good, perhaps we should not only take the most downloaded temporarily maybe we should see that on a more extended time table, as i mean take those that will get classics or just "must apply" or cult or however ya wonna call it -?

Look it up. It takes away the JavaScript in SP1 that makes focus change to the post text box when you move your mouse over it.

We already said we're including Security Fix 1.4. That's the only security fix there is.

That's one way to do it, but I think the most objective way is to look at the most-downloaded mods. Making a poll about what mods are best wouldn't be a good representation of the mod users community at all, I don't think. Besides, the top 3-5 aren't going to be changing all that much anyway.

The only security fix is Security Fix 1.4. Encrypted passwords is a totally optional and not that popular mod (#19, only available for Gold Release). This doesn't fix any vulnerability, just gives a little more piece of mind to the paranoids. Wink

Hm... let's say you test all mods with the top 5 downloaded mods.

What if the top mods 5 and 6 are permanent changing ?

Example:
( i must explain it because im not sure if you understand my english Wink )
Let's say today "Mod_A" has 2000 downloads and "Mod_B" 1990 downloads.
The next day "Mod_A" has 2002 downloads and "Mod_B" 2020 ...
and then "Mod_A" 2030 and "Mod_B" 2028...
and so on...

Today it isn't the case but it can happen!

"Always" instead of "permanent" would have made more sense, but otherwise that was great. Smiley

That's true, but I think the top 3 will change very little. They might change places (i.e. Mod #1 might move to 2 and Mod #2 might move to 1, but they're still in the top 3).

Hehe don't worry about download counts, I think we should not strictly focus on that counter. If there is a new, very good mod available which is is liked very much and a lot of people are interested into it, why not add it to that list? It will take half a year till a new mod has reached the download count of the poll mod Wink

Yeah, maybe we should just have a vote amongst the mod testing team (once assembled) as to what mods should be used. As I said before, I don't think that making a public vote would work out well, let's just keep it to the people on the team, who will explain their suggestions, rather than just a numerical poll.

Good point. Undecided Maybe in this new mod review/display script we should have "top downloads in the past 30 days"? Might be a more accurate popularity rating.
