that's what they do at phpbb.com. They, of course, also have the hacks database. Sad to say they are way ahead of vB.

if you suggested this and it was denied, then they need to look again. As I said, phpbb.com has had this system implemented for quite some time now, as well as a hack database. Being a free software, it's a shame that they are so far ahead of vB in that regard.
