With this hack we can improve the process of deleting a post.
When I am going to delete a post I would like a system that:
1. Show a list of pre-defined reasons describing the reason for which I'm deleting this post. At now, there is a field to write it, it would be good to mantain it, but to add this list, which would made our job as moderators faster
2. At the same time it would be a good idea that if we have selected a pre-defined reason, that the system send out a pre-defined e-mail to the user explaining him the reason for which I have deleted his post. It would made our forums more kind; actually I delete the post and I dont have time to send personalized mails to those users, and when they come in to ther forum they feel sad cause they dont know why I have deleted their posts.

Dont you think this hack would be good to add it to the next vBulletin release?

If you would look around, i think there is a hack to that does this for vB3.0.7.

In vB3.5 the whole moderation process will be imporved a lot. You can find already some info about that on vbulletin.com.
