Need Shoutbox with way to ban users

Kindred:
1- upgrade your SMF installation. RC3 is not secure.
2- when you upgrade your SMF installation, you will have to reinstall all mods anyway...   install the new version then.
3- SMF 2.0.x has many hooks and many mods take advantage of those. SMF 2.1 will have many more...  but it is up to the mod authors to use them.

Finally on "messing up" files... I had a test forum on which I installed 160+ mods...   successfully, with only minor manual intervention.

There is one already: hooks, it will be even better with the next version.

If there is 2 mods with the same features and 1 is using hooks, then I strongly suggest to use the one who uses hooks, less file edits, less headaches for both you and the mod author.

We try to encourage mod authors to use them but we cannot force them, also, there is so many old mods that people still use and cannot be updated because of license issues and all that stuff.
