Instead use one of the predefined market items I have included in the 2.0.1 series or one of the predefined categories that have no functionality but are available for custom coding and modify the coding with how you wish. Just don't insert anything new on the table. The reason I did that is so I can still have some control over the reported bugs and errors without having much 3rd party issues coming into play on why things don't work. I'm not saying I won't change that in the future but it all depends on how popular this mod becomes.

Ah, ok, so I gather it's possible to offer different things then what you've pre-written so long as we do it within your structure, is that correct? If so that's great. Just the ability to tailor the items a bit more to different specific needs is great.
The other thought I personally had regarding 'items' was for actual 'things' like a t-shirt or hat with the sites logo, or even put the points towards their next years membership for example. I'm assuming the best way to do that is manually subtracting the points from a members profile if they order something like that.
