I so hope this happens.

I've argued it a few times before, but the distributed sites do little to strengthen the support and extensibility of vBulletin as a product. It's simply too hard for newbies to know where they should go for what type of support or help, and as hacks can be split down templates and code (template conditionals vs PHP), it is very hard for them to understand where to find what they're looking for.

All newbies seek are answers, and it would benefit all of us to have them find them as swiftly as possible... as this will reduce the amount of effort hackwriters have to give, as well as increase the feeling amongst newbies that the support network that the community offers is responsive and comprehensive.

Go for it
