I've seen this on many forums where, theres something called "Notices" and the admins get to post their own notice to the fourms, what mod is this? or is this a feature?

This is a feature built into vBulletin.

You have two different tools to use:

Announcements -

Quote:

Announcements differ from threads in that they can appear in multiple forums simultaneously, and have a time period in which they are visible, then they disappear from view.

The latest announcement will be listed when there are multlple announcements. Clicking on one to read it will also list any other announcement for that forum.

Notices -

Quote:

Notices appear by default in the navbar template, in a box underneath the main board links.

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