Integrating a script with vBulletin?

I have looked at similar intergrations beyond user access, but it becomes extremely complex as you start looking at using vbulletin options, vbulletin's template engine, even vbulletins database class.

My personal opinion would be to start from stratch if you're looking for similar functionality, vBulletin can already handle alot of the stuff it seems to be doing, and with a few (probably lots) plugins into certain areas you could achieve it.

I agree with Merk, sometimes integrating a complete script is more work then just starting from scratch. If you have the skills and time to code your own script, then I would do that. It's a great learning experience and you'll understand your code much better then a pre-existing script.
