    To create a better script classification system

    Instead of just throwing the scripts into a huge list, classify them according to categories; like site, purpouse, etc.

    Vote for removal

    Hi,

    Please add some option where people can vote for removal of outdated, malware, stealing scripts.

    For exmaple if a script receives 3 times as much "Remove" votes as "Keep" votes, after a total of 100 votes, the script gets deleted.

    Show that script is already installed in Greasemonkey

    This could eliminate the need to install a style when it's already in Greasemonkey. Stylish has this on their site, and also when a style is updated it says: Style has been updated since your last install.

    He is like the plague... infecting forums, scripts, and more. No one likes him and he needs to go, pronto.

    Multiple authors of the same script

    If one person creates a script initially, then another person alters it substantially (or rewrites it but provides the same features), it would be nice if the second author could be added as an admin for that script for credit where credit is due, and for future maintenance.

    Amount of unique installs

    Add an amount of unique installs for userscripts.
    This way you can get a better track of the amount of users, using a particular userscript.

    Add statistics

    Add statistics, i.e. downloads per day, week etc. etc.
    You could easily implement something using Google Chart API (http://code.google.com/apis/chart/)

    clean up forum

    There should be a group of moderators who cleanup the forum and expand the forum maybe. The forum is so cluttered that I don't like coming there.

    Possibility to show in what browsers script works.

    Scripts that don't use "GM_*" can work at Firefox (with Gresemonkey), Opera and probably at more browsers. Maybe scriptwriters can mark at what browsers their script can work correctly. And it will be show on the right as a small icons (they can work as a link to FAQ for specified brows... more

    Implement "flag as spam" in the forums

    This would hopefully eliminate the need for the "Spam and malware" topic. Also, a better system to actually follow through and remove spam (eg. I've personally had spam in comments of one of my scripts for weeks, I flagged it and posted on the forums and it's still not been removed - ht... more

    A frontpage describing the site and its purpose for new user

    This would contain a SHORT description of what Greasemonkey is (and maybe UserJS, GreaseKit etc.) and how to install scripts (so new users won't ask this in forums).

    Followed of course by a nice friendly welcome from the site admins :) and then whatever else. Maybe a short FAQ for new people a... more

    Implement some form of "deprecated" tag for old scripts

    Some scripts may no longer work but can be of use to some people for coding or interest reasons. Since a majority of users won't want to install such a script, there should be some way of unlisting a script without actually removing it.

    Links black list for spammer

    Each time that a spam post is removed from the forum, if it contains links, these are added to a black list, if a new post has a link contained in the black list it will considered as a spam post as well and trashed directly.

    Sticky discussions

    <b><u>Suggestion</u></b>: The author of an script can set a sticky discussion (in the script discussion, not in the forum). :)

    "Users Who Use This Script Recommend ..."

    Ala Amazon.com. The idea here is to both:

    Avoid script bit-rot. for any given script you can recommend what you think is an updated or better version of the script.

    Further spread knowledge of useful scripts.
