Someone could just as easily delete the relevant part of there app as well on the app page in the case. There's also been a few cases of app-theft which could be way that person removed the sample. Having all the apps left open on the apps page I would think increases the chance that someone will just steal that app for another game since they're all in one convenient place.

And I'm rather in agreement with the above unpopular opinion. I actually had to hunt for the password the first time because I read the FAQs before apping and by the time I got to the password part in the app, I'd utterly forgotten it and had to actually go ask someone where in heck the thing was. The 2nd time was a bloody nightmare of "Where did they hide that stupid thing this time ug".

Not that it really matters since if all the apps are posted in line, you can just scroll up and take it from a the last app on the page anyway with very little fuss.

If you really want to keep all the apps together and on file, I'd suggest having them be emailed instead. Less app theft, clear apps page, easy ability to have everything in a searchable database and no comment limits. [the only trouble there is LJ formatting doesn't carry over]
