I definitely appreciate that having these scripts could work better for the board. The only problem is that I don't have SSH or FTP access to the server, to be able to upload the PHP scripts. I'm only working within the confines of moderator, so I can only add BBCodes that work internally to PHPBB.

I could ask the admins to action the uploads, but they are busy people, and if anything needs changing and tweaking constantly, it'd be a pain in the ass for all involved.

Anyway I appreciate your input, man. :thumbsup:

I'm not even sure there's anything that can do this. But, I'll see what I can do. :wave:

It's a pretty basic code, but I'll see if I can tweak it a little.

Maybe that can be the next big RM tournament. Who's in?

You got to be selective, dude. There's only so many RMers I'd be comfortable seeing naked, if you know what I mean.

Yeah true. We need some kind of screening process, and a volunteer to 'screen' everyone.

I'm not sure anyone would volunteer for that.
