Yea thats the conclusion i came to, but unfortuantly i have no idea about writting Plugins for VB. I suppose i could give it a go, thanks.

Throws up a database error message, but still goes ahead with the registration, just doesn't put any information in the User Profile Field in the database. Which i suppose is half the battle, as it woun't let you view any of the forums until you fill out your GameID, just a bit messy. Thanks though.

Any other idea's/solutions welcome.
