is there a way to add a refresh to vbulletin for instance when you click on the new posts and it lists them, it refreshes the page every 30 seconds, this would allow you to see who has posted new posts in the forums

anyone know how to do this??

do you mean like
http://forums.digitalpoint.com/spy.php
?

if so, it would be a custom mod
