This stickied thread should probably also be modified to reflect the new change.

This should make people more likely to try out new plugins and I like the rating system as well.
Thanks for this change!

Here's my question. When is my Lo-Fi Beacon Deluxe plugin going to be re-approved? I fixed it ages ago and it's still stuck in Unapproved purgatory.

The "Ready for Review" queue is much smaller now as it only contains plugins that were "Unapproved" and then later marked as Ready for Review. So, at the least, it should take much less time than before this change. That said, as I noted, approval activity has been near-0 for the past couple of months.

Well I like this new change. As many have said, it'll give new plugins a better chance of being seen and tried. Perhaps if we had a better form of the sourcemod.net plugin search right here on the forums, people could do refined searches. Maybe if we added "tags" that we could set on our threads, that would help a plugin search system as well.

Codes which displays things to users isn't exactly unit-test friendly.

So when are we getting the ability to change our name? I'm getting tired of being named after a Sting song.
