should I Write Plugin or Hack Code?

[scowby]

I am trying to write functionality which will send out an email whenever a users post is rejected (i.e. deleted) from the system.

I am wondering if I should be trying to write a plugin, or hack the VB code directly to insert hooks to my code?

Are there any good forums for learning how to write plugins? I am going to need to customize this software to suit my needs, how best can I determine if a plugin is the method I should be persuing?

Thanks!
