vB NNTP Mod demo before i buy

[jayant]

Before I buy vBulletin, I wish to see a live demo of the NNTP mod https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=65152

The mod is the only reason I will buy vBulletin. I have seen many scripts that can do this, but they all break/ die when the DB size increases. i expect that since posts are stored in VB, things should be better off.

i wish to see the demo, both from the user perspective and the admin perspective so that i can get an idea of how much modifications i will have to do, for the mod to work the way i want it to.

What exactly do you need it to do? I know of one really large site that uses the hack, perhaps they will see this thread and share some of thier insight.

i basically wish to see how much feature rich it is.
will it connect to multiple news servers? will it detect duplicate posts across different news servers, and download them only once.
limit number of posts per day on per usergroup/membership level basis.

i also wish to know if the mod can be further modded easily in order to add more desired features or lot of hardcoding/ bad coding standards are followed...

can you share with me the url of that really big site? i will get a user perspective atleast.
