The 'sity currently uses a flagging system now in the freebies section, so it shouldn't be that much of a change to implement it for the forums, or add that much overhead to the system. In fact, it might make the system faster, since the queries would be giving smaller results back from the server. Anytime you add extra indexes, response on a query should speed up, but posting response would go down (slightly). I think the 'sity's biggest problem is its own success. It gets huge numbers of hits every day, and really requires heavy duty hardware and networking. I think its amazing how well they do know, considering the volume of traffic. As for catagories, add as many P4 ones as you like to my suggestion. So far P5 does everything P4 did for me, so I haven't had to go back yet. Of course, I still haven't tried to import a P5 scene into Vue. Ah programming... God bless Bill Gates and IBM. They keep my paycheck a coming in! (grin).
