I just want to put a little FYI out there for people who have never used this hack on your board.

I had it installed and it was all fun and games until my "naughty" users figured out how to use it and before I knew it there was "I heard [you] sucks" type threads all over the place and in peoples sigs. Some of my "computer dumb" users couldn't figure out that it was a code, even after explaining it to them, and got REALLY pissed off at the members and me (the webmaster) for messages they thought were directed at them.

It can be a fun hack and does a fantastic job of getting peoples attention, but if your userbase isn't computer savvy I would pass this one up.

Any chance this hack could be made to work for admin/mods only?

Just do what I did on my site. Change YOU to something only you and the staff knows (like worship or dogbone or whatever you choose).

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