Another good one for vb5 would be something like this:

I was stuck in vb3 for years but now that I've upgraded to vb5 over all I am glad I made the move.

I doubt anyone will make mods similar to the ones you listed anytime soon.

Ok people, lets stick to the topic, couple of unhelpful posts removed.

Maybe it is just the users I attract, but the most useful tool I ever had and which we relied on constantly prior to VB5 was a Multiple Account detector like this :

It helped prevent sock-puppets, banned users and trouble makers. IP checks just don't cut it.
You need a cookie stored separate from the log in, so it does not disappear as easily, and a way to check and report multiple users.

This is the single most missed tool/hack from previous versions. It should almost be built into VB it is so important. Unless you have a very vanilla, homogenous site and never get trolls, I honestly do not see how anyone can run a forum effectively without something like this.

I have some modifications on my site that I created in 5.1.4 that were broken in 5.1.5, then broken again in 5.1.6. As the bugs are being squashed out of VB5, it seems to be in a constant state of flux. I won't stop developing mods for my site, but until VB5 stabilizes, I won't be publishing any due to the amount of work and support that will be required at each release.

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