How do you know every person will try to make some sort of myspace clone? You don't know that for a fact. Some people may want something like this just for themselves, friends & family.

Who cares?! Truth be told, this modification is going to have NO effect on the existing sites. The liklihood that a modification made to vBulletin could/would corrupt existing and established sites is highly unlikely.

If "social networking" loses its "value" as you put it, something else will come along and takes it place. Its how the net works.

The fact that YOU don't care for this modification can be rectified easily. Stop following this thread, stop posting in this thread, and don't install this modification when it is released. Tada, problem is solved!

I haven't seen any updates on this thread in a while. Other than the first initial posts about what you guys were working on, there hasn't been any posts since then except to say that you wont tell us anything until its worthwhile...

2 weeks... 3 weeks... nothing new. Can we hear an update?

Thanks :)

Thanks toolblast :)

Yeah it's not even really about a progress report as much just to let us know you're still working the project. A lot of coders seem to just quit projects and never announce it.

And with the history of this hack... well you can see why we are wondering.

haha. Well spoken.

On a lighter note, I am working to try and put together a big list of 'wannabe features' for the ultimate profile plugin. I am putting together a list of 'dream features', as I try to remember some of the ones we all brought to the table in the Zoints thread on this forum (which was deleted). So if you guys have a few minutes, please PM ME your list of "dream features" that you would want in your user profiles to make your forum better.

Then this list will be taken to the people working on the latest non-centralized profile solutions (Zlite, IP, VBspaces2... whatever) and let them see what the best ideas are and help them build their hacks.

Still no updates :( where are you guys!?

I guess its not as easy as it looks coding this hack.

hehe i think we all should stop getting our hopes up...

Ok how about this question...

Is there ANY vb coder reading this message right now that:
a) believes he can code this hack
b) thinks he can do it in a timely manner
c) agrees that giving updates is important
d) would create this plugin for money if required

Please PM me or post in this thread your name and email. I would like to get in touch with you to discuss creating this hack/plugin and how much it would cost to do so. I have a budget I am willing to throw around if something like this can be done in a timely fashion. PM me, thanks!
