What's with all these sites, mirroring vB.orgs content. I only found one site which seems to be pirating my linkbacks mod, the others seem to be mirroring the content of modification posts, and offering a link to vBulletin.org

Without having a look, sounds like RSS to me. I just stumbled upon a vB piracy site - I signed up thinking it was a legit mod community. It's shocking what they have there.

Hmm, so vB.org offers an RSS feed for the whole of modification posts? There's certainly some people who are offering my mod for download on those links. Even if it's only one or two

If that bothers you stay far away from the torrent trackers.

RSS feeds can only get content that is available to guests, so they might be able to get the thread text this way, but not the modifications themself.

Perhaps you should only offer the first 100 characters of posts in RSS feeds. They literally are mirroring the content of the post, no matter how long it is

I took a look to see if it was possible to limit amount of chars, but couldn't find any. Also, external.php doesn't provide a good hook location to dynamically alter the content before converting it too RSS/XML...etc...etc...

Might be a worthwhile code-edit then perhaps?
