Guys,

Just my personal opinion and a suggestion or advice.

Please keep the code hacks and modifications to a minimum, more code change in each hack is not good, start running into problems and it makes it harder to do VB version upgrades at a later date. I learned this from dealing with PHPBB. Too many modifications just to get a default installation of PHPBB to do what you want it to do, im sure Vbulletin could go the same way with the code hack issues if you modify it far enough.

What Im trying to say is lets not add anymore code changes to a hack then what the hack was originally designed to do, that way we keep the code modification to a minimum. If we want to add another feature and it really doesnt belong with that original hack, (restricting user name lenght in a user name change/user id history for example, especially if its already included in the admin cp) then create a seperate hack just for that feature. Some people may not want that "extra" feature included in the main hack thus reducing the amount of code alterations on their board.

The less code modification the better.
