      I agree. Like that, people will have to comment and explain their rating when they rate.

      If a user who isn't the topic maker, then he can bump it simply by posting.

      
      

      Ban people who abuse the level portal. But only don't let him to access to portal.

That has nothing to do with the portal itself.

Suggestion: How about instead of when you click a level on the list, how about it takes you to the level rather than the topic?

I think we should have 3 or so levels that need to be reviewed then you can post levels freely.
(or is that already in but I haven't seen it since I only have 2 levels...)

Do you mean approval system? That actaully can be approved by lemons, but I don't think there's enough amount of lemons to deal with that amount of levels.

Quick-level is quite good, maybe add a button outside the topic.

Only the first 5 levels need to be approved, then you are free.

Here's mine, allow only people with more than a number of posts to access the LP after LP Testing

That's maybe too inconvenient for some user. Some user are little kids and they dunno how to post properly, it will just lead to a big mess in the forums. Moreover, you already need approval posts. That's too troublesome.

My suggestion: Ban people who abuse the level portal. But only don't let him to access to portal.

This is actually quite possible now that the Portal is connected to the forums, unlike before.
