Default uShop

There is a uShop thing on another forum I visit's vBulletin.

You get points for making posts and such and with those points you can buy things like...

Change Custom Title - Change Other User's Custom Title - Change Username - Glowing Username - Colored Username - Bold Username - Italicized Username - Sticky Thread

I'm not sure if this is an add on or something built in, but it is still pretty neat.

Speaking of reminding......how's that online store coming along? I sure am looking forward to sitting in front of my laptop in my boxer shorts wearing a TP.COM ball cap while playing micro-limit NLHE.

I looked at it.... quite frankly, my overall reaction is..... "eh." It looks interesting, but it's a bit.... what's the word.... I don't even know. Gimmicky? It feels more like a game than anything else.

If you want a custom title, you need to make 1000 posts. Simple as that!

A couple of the things would be nice (like the glowing username, etc), but I don't like a lot of them: Changing your Username, Changing SOMEONE ELSE'S title, and so on and so forth.

All in all, I don't think it's worth the trouble.
