How about making the tech %s under the persons name go to all the persons tech posts?

[TechGuy]

Well, that's not actually possible as things sit now. I could probably write a routine to do that, but it would slow down the database a bit... besides, how useful would that be? I kind of like the link going to the profile anyway -- it explains what the percent means.

[websurfer]

Ohhh... Ok. Well how useful is the normal post link? Well, I was just thinking about it when I accidentaly click one of the links. No big deal

[TechGuy]

Thanks for the suggestions anyway! I'll just pass on this one... feel free to keep them coming, though! That's how we've made this such a swell place to waste time.

Wasting time is what I do best Although, don't waste much since I am starting to learn VB I'll keep 'em coming though. Say Mike, do you pay for vBulliten, otehr than the first cost? If you do, I might be able to help you save money And, not lose anyone's post etc.

[TechGuy]

Yup, we're currently paying a yearly rate of something less than $100 for it. I'm aware of some free alternatives -- we used to run on a number of them. I've been so darned happy with vB, though, that it would really take a BIG problem to make me move. I do, however, appreciate the offer!! Which one were you recommending, by the way? phpBB?

[websurfer]

Yes, phpBB hat or IPB. But, phpBB has a thing to transfer all members etc, from vBulliten.

But still all the TSG hacks and layouts would be gone, such as the profile photo, affero, the tech %, etc.
