Hi,

First of all I do not know why would anyone have 2 sets of pre-sales forums (www.vbulletin.org and www.vbulletin.com)

We are deciding between vbulletin and UBB.threads. Right now we are leaning more towards vbulletin. We need to purchase this by the end of friday. There are a few questions we needed to aks before going ahead.

1. We need a ranking system for members where one member can rank another member. Is this possible? if No, is there a hack for it?

2. We want to customize it and add banner and sky ads to them. How easy is it?

3. Our current boards is a really old UBB board. Recently some marketing company has been posting a lots of unwanted unrealted posts on our boards and this is causing a lot of problems. The email domain is sauditrades.com. Is there a way we can block such people from posting?

4. Is there a way to avoid auto posting in the sense there is a word inside an image that you need to type in order to signin and post thus avoiding auto posting?

5. Is there a way to import UBB perl BB to vbulletin?

6. What is the most popular and preferref payment portal used for the payment process?

7. We publish articles on one of our website and would like to use this as a section for comments. So everytime an editor publishes an article
(a) I should be able to run a querya nd create a new thread
(b) Get the id for this thread so that I can associate this thread with the article

It is not a VB3 engine, just a parsed copy!
