Sorry to bust into your thread here, but would it be a pain in the *** to make something that would hyperlink everytime that a Members Name shows up in a post. (haha, that probably the first time you've seen the word hyperlink in a while!) It would link to the members profile of course.
It would work similar to bbcode, but the only problem I could see is that if it's dynamic it would add a big load to the server to query each word to see if it was a member. (especialy on LARGE boards)
Maybe it could be done as a static thing, a modification to the "convert urls to linked urls" part of posting... So it would make add the link only once, when a post was created and then it would be saved as bbcode in the post. Thus eliminating the need for dynamic linking. Of course you would have to add a maintnance function to covert old posts so the bbcode was added into the post.
SOrry for not posting this as a request, it's really just a suggestion. =)
