Uh. How would Jelsoft making a new feature make any difference in whether or not the admins choose to implement it?

Such a hack does not exist for VB (yet). In choosing whether to deploy a hack such as the reputation system, the decision to include or reject it is based in part on whether the code exists (as well as any enhancement to the user experience). Or did you think some of the features here are not found elsewhere?

If Jelsoft Enterprises thought it worthy and included it (like the email notification feature), it would be much easier to include it and the decision would probably lie with the end-user.

that doesn't mean they're part of vbulletin, by their very nature, hacks aren't part of the board...

and if you're talking vbulletin.org, that's unofficial...

According to something M.Hirsh had posted in one of the suggestion threads, each hack added adds the possibility of gleaches creeping/security vulnerabilities in the system.

My 20c is that the admins will pass on this idea.

Well, there's a suggestion forum for a reason. I gave a suggestion. No need for anyone to get their respective panties in bunches over it. If they pass on it, they pass on it.

Btw, this suggestion forum is mostly just for us lot to thrash ideas
around until they are agreed on by most. If you actually want to
see this happen, submit a ticket to eSupport with the ideas from
this thread, and see what the admins have to say about it...
