I'll check it out, and post an update
True, but people who don't know what shouldn't be uploaded to ticalc deserve to know that other people think they are idiots.

Ticalc.org deserves a good spring cleaning (even though its not spring)
Actually, I'm beginning to be convinced it's time to abandon ticalc.org and create something new and better. This is making me more and more interested in accepting non-me programs here...
*abandon the ticalc.org archives
The quality has taken such a nosedive lately it's hardlhy even worth it anymore.

Maybe it just needs a revival. It's been the cornerstone of the TI community since 1996. We can't just abandon it because they've let archive quality dip a little.
Then they need some kind of good system, like have an independent board go through and rate stuff "extraordinary", "good", and "average", then have a user option to only make say extraordinary and good visible to that user while browsing.
Exactly. Have you seen the system they have at download.com, where the CNET editor's board reviews everything so you know a sane person has reviewed the program? Something like that.
Exactly, because some of the ratings at ticalc.org seem fairly random - I admit I've rated down many a n00bs program just because I'm so frustrated with 5 billion quadratic equation solvers.
Like my 1337 Guide - both the reviews say 10/10, and yet the average rating is 6.36. Doesn't make a whole lot of sense to me...
