Yea, I'm looking for it to do that or just say it up at the top that they have new comments.

'm looking forward to the automatic PM with comment post also. That would really make this one of the best mods ever.

Why not just install vS-Interactive Profiles?? It even goes as far as letting users choose to be emailed when they get a new comment or friend request. Not to mention a million other features.

This mod is obviously not being updated anymore. Hell, the last updates to this mod were ones that *I* created myself. But once I found out that vS-Iprof was free, there wasn't much hope in this hack anymore.

Not everyone wants to use an all in one hack like that, I for one have a system i'm perfectly happy with in place that I've designed for my own purpose and this individual hack far better suits my own personal needs, so i'll continue to use this one, ta very much.

Although of course you are right, updates aint exactly forthcoming for this hack right now, but it does work for my setup and that's what matters for me.

Not that I disagree with what you're saying.... But what is stopping you or anybody else from only installing the parts of vS-IP that you want? Just don't perform the template edits you don't need, and disable the plugins for everything but the comments/whatever else you want to keep.

Two reasons for me mainly. vS-IP has official stopped in it's development now according to the hack release thread and further development that suit my needs for this particular add-on would be a lot easier for me to do myself, as it is a single add-on so less script for me to muck up.

Of course, if someone was to release a fully AJAX'd version of this individual hack, with all the bells and whistles already in place, such as PMing and the likes, i'd be very tempted to swap. But I can't be dealing with disabled plugins and the likes, as you have suggested, it gets too messy for me.

That's what makes vb.org and the community so great in my opinion though, we have choices thanks to those that do the hard work and do the initial code for these things, saving people like me weeks and months having to do it all the hard way.
