I'm all for it but unfortunately vB is not supported like it once was and the plugin mentioned in this thread was last updated in 2008! Plus it's designed for the previous version of vB...That said, we're working on moving Mazdas247 to XenForo which is like vB but newer and with a lot more support. It's going to take a lot of time and effort but I'm on a mission to make it happen...XenForo offers a lot of modern functionality including a Thanks button and @usernames (or there's a plugin for it)...Stay tuned and thanks for the feedback and patience, I really appreciate it!
