Okay... I know bunches of you have this hack running.

So, what is your first impression?

Does it cause any issues like slowing the forum down or conficts with vBulletin?



How much control does Admin have over what gifts are available? I've seen this on Ohiosweethearts forum and like it a lot, except for the numbers! Millions?!?! Can you scale it down?

Also, can you easily set it up so points are only displayed in the Member Profile and not the Templates? (I am guessing easy enough template edits, but I am not a be 'assumer'. ;) )



Not looking for support, just ideas and comments before I go hacking up my already overhacked forum!!


Thanks in Advance,

G...

1. no it doesn't slow the forum down, at all
2. Admin has complete control, all the way down to who can earn points and who can't.
3. You can add and delete the gifts that people give to each other.
4. It integrates with both vB3 arcade and IBPro Arcade
5. You can set it up so that points are visible only in the profiles. You can do the same with the gifts, ribbons and sports icons.

The millions of points that members have on my site came about because of a bug that has since been fixed, lol.

haha! Wondered.


Got to say it seems like a great edition to community oriented forums.

I sure like it on your forum and Loco M. doesn't have anything bad to say about it.

I'll likely install it after upgrading to 3.6 - I am dreading that day!! LOL



Anyone else with comments I would love to hear from you. Cheers.

great thing is that it's already been upgraded for 3.6, so have both of the arcade's, so you shouldn't have any problem.

It's been a wonderful addition to our forum, my members love it.
