i have an idea.
i said Malware1 open new froum and access to a few trusted user (active users in malware hub) put pack there and do not SUD them to vendor too see when vendor detect un SUD viruses?
and messure time and get score to AV that detected sooner.
and speak about it which one off them is faster detection!
sorry for my bad english!

Not a bad idea, but think into this example:
@Malware1 finds a new FUD malware. If he will post in a private forum section, and people will check them like every hour to see which vendors' product will detect it firstly or anything, without submission, the malware will spread in the wild under that time. If the people submit that FUD file as soon as possible, it means that they stop (not fully, but at least on that computers which use vendors' products which will detect the file soon after the submission) the spread of that malware. And for example, that FUD file is a new locker variant. What you will say if PCs get infected with it because we played with the file in the private section without submissions?

So, the idea is good, but some work needed on it.

That's ok, it's not the point. The point is: the FUD file in that example won't be submitted to vendors, because @Malware1 or any trusted member will wait which vendor will the fastest on detection without submissions. Do you understand it?

I won't wait, i'll submit the files anyway. The point is to send undetected samples, I don't upload packs to test AVs.

The point of the hub is to quickly send undetected samples to AV vendors to reduce the time between a signature update and releasing of malware. If you want to test AV, just do not update the definitions to the latest versions, IE, simulating a zero day like thingy :)
