I would be curious if you could label the guests. For instance, if I link with another forum called Forum X. If Forum X makes a post that shows up on my site as a guest, it would be nice to have it show up under a generic Forum X username, so that people on my site could find the other forum, and vice-versa. This would be particularly helpful for sites that link with 2 or more others. Just a thought.
Each post coming from a remote board has a message appended to it stating the originating board. For example, a post from my board to another board may look something like:

Quote:
Oh my god! You guys are so lame!

Here is a work safe example of a post made on my board that appears on a remote board via my network plugin:

http://www.drunkensquirrel.net/com/s...00&postcount=9

This way people are able to find the remote board. But there is no (easy) way to make all posts show up under the same generic ForumX username, which is what I think you're asking for.

Actually, looking at that post reminds me of an undocumented feature of the plugin that does allows boards to grab the avatar of the remote users. I will document this tonight and upload my bug fixes as well.
