Then such a check whenever the new thread script is called would require at least 2 lookups, and 2 comparisons, and some math. It seems possible based on the number on threads started around here like it wouldn't bog down the server too much.
It's just that none of this exsists (probably). So we should probably just learn how to deal with it.
I wonder if it's just a regular SQL SERVER....
Wouldn't really be the best way to get people to hang around either. Can you imagine a lovely error page
Ok so maybe it wouldn't have to go like that. (But if I were writing the php script, it sure would  )

I've never done vBulletin, but I've done some things like that for a phpBB board that I've admined. Not a big deal really, for someone that has experience in it.
I always loved making custom titles for people that they couldn't change.
