Ahhh, the reason they have this capability there is because they are not running UBB as we are. They are running VBulletin. It has several features UBB does not (but should). Many I've added myself by modifying UBB with hacks or my own code, but it's a pain in the butt. And, it makes it impossible to upgrade with newer versions as they become available because you have to redo all your hacks and modifications all over again to the newer version (or loose them). Thus, why the version of UBB we're running is actually several updates old now.

I've been thinking of dumping UBB for a while now, but we'll just have to see what comes around...
