The grading system is STRICT?!?!?!? Dude, you can rate it yourself. Heck, if you want, go spam fives on your mods. I wouldn't care (if you really think it deserves a five, go ahead).
Out-of-date? Hmm... If I can get on my neighbors wifi (did for the last two days) I'll try and update. Bear in mind that ANYONE can update by making the simple xml. Every modder has the capibilities to make an XML, so it shouldn't be difficult. The only things that need to really be kept up to date is versions and download (and maybe the description and editors rating, depending on what was changed). If enough people want it, I'll abolish the editor's rating and leave just the user's rating.
If you notice your mod (or anyones mod) is behind, either make the XML or give me the new download link and version.
