Doing a lot of testing on this, but I really like the feature set of vBulletin 3.6. Right now it's just in the Beta 1 release, but from the looks of things it will go final in probably 30 to 45 days. When the code goes final and is fully released for production, it will be put in place here on GFY within 48-hours. There's a bunch of fixes and new features in 3.6 that I've already got custom code in place right now, but there is one feature that has been much needed and for a long time.

In the past, signature file policing has pretty much been a manual process. And that's always been a big problem. With 3.6, the server gerbils get full control of that. If your signature is too big, if it contains too many images, if the text size is out of control, the board software will spot it, and kill it. If existing sigs don't follow the rules, and to the absolute letter, they DON'T ever get displayed.
