Considering a Switch, Will I find what I need?

[Brad]

- Spell Checking - I think this already standard?

It was stock but the service they used as scence went belly up, there are tons of hacks using differnt methods around here that rang from 3rd party sites to php powered spell checking

Multiple Subforums - Subforums within subforums!

stock

Forums/Member Pruning - With multiple options like last active date, register date, post date, ect, ect.

Stock

Site Intergration - The ability to create outside pages using the VB skins AND/OR simply member protect pages where a user must be logged or in a certain user group to view outside pages. Including pages inside and outside of the VB forum folders...

Lots of hacks that will do this. Search for webtemplates

Portal Index - can be the index or a seperate page, inside or outside of the VB folder.

Tons, vBhome, vBindex, vBportal to name a few

Refferal System - New resgisters can input who reffered them and users refferals will display in thier profile.

stock, some advancments avaiable with hacks

Shared Members - Run multiple forums using the exact same members tables. (or other user tables such as avatars, skins ect...)

It has been done but im not aware if anyone has released it, vB 3 has the ground work to do this, shared db's may be stock in 3.1

Topic Ratings - ratings of topics!

Stock

RPG/Battle/Shop System - Another thing I'd reeaaally like to keep for my board. Battling, Items shops ("dud" items and board feature items), money, ect.

Hacks for all this are here on vB.org

User Alias - Allow users to create multiple aliases with seperate avatars and siggys without having to register multiple accounts. They can choose which alias to post with while posting a new topic/reply/poll <- REALLY REALLY need this. I'd switch for this option alone. And if it doesn't exist and someone is interesting in coding this, I can explain it's functions down the the nitty gritty details.

I re-call seeing this somewhere but I am not sure if a hack is released or not.
