Be patient with me, not sure I can explain what I mean.

One of the hardest things I think for some of us is building a steady new stream of members to our forums. For instance I have 2 awesome sites with literally great content that I think anyone will love that is interested in their topics; weddings and travel

I am wondering if there is a system or could there be one installed, where you joined and were accepted on only upon review, to a community of joined vbulletin forums?

That is, it would be easy for them to join your board having been transferred or connected from another in the community.

Does anyone follow me? Seems like for the larger boards, with good community members, they could charge for being connected or some sort of value placed on leeching members.

Thanks

Glen

I'm not aware of anything like that, it would be difficult because the login information would have to be shared amongst sites/databases... that way if you changed it on one site, it would reflect the changes on the others. Also, how would it handle custom user fields... if let's say, 1 site required a zip code, but others didn't, or didn't even have that option...
