Could someone please tell me about the following:

1. is it possible for the admin (including moderators) to have larger PM box than normal members?
2. How does the "report this link" thing work?
When a user reports a link what does the admin see? I mean do they get an email/PM/pop-up box?
The reason I'm asking is because I dont really want to be inundated with emails/PM's.

Thanks in advance

1. This would require modifying the code.
2. The 'report' goes by email to the Moderators of that forum or to the Admins if there are no Moderators.

thanks for the quick reply. Is this any different in VB3?

In vBulletin 3, you can set the size of a usergroups PM box so they can have different numbers of messages which would fulfill your first question.

one final question (I hope!) - how come a lot of sites that have templates on them don't span the forums across a big screen? Ie, when I use the default, it uses all the available space on my screen. Templated forums dont do that (from what I've seen).

You can edit the width of the overall forum from 10%-100% if you wanted to. I run mine @ 98%.
