However, the "best approach" depends on what you are doing, and what you need.

I know this is off-topic, but i'm using your integration as a model for other scripts to be integrated with vbulletin.

Someone I was trying to hire to integrate vb and a community blog script insisted that synching is necessary to sync both the user tables of vb and blog. the sync script would detect changes on either user tables (vb, blog) and will make the updates.

The following is a different blog script from the one i'll be using and this one is integrated with phpbb, but look closely at the instructions. it uses the same principle of synching the user tables instead of ignoring one of user tables like you said.
