Great Mod... but

Firstly, thanks to Anacrusis for saving me a lot of time and trouble :) The instructions were reasonably clear, but they had an error that I spotted: in topic.asp, the first replacement is back-to-front and doesn't correctly tell you to add M.M_GLOW_TEXT to the SQL query, but tells you to incorrectly add M_GLOW_TEXT. The dbs file didn't set up the database properly for MS SQL so the changes made to register.asp broke the new member registration process because it couldn't update the db properly - I had to manually set up the points store database fields with the store items. If you're an ASP coder, this is a great MOD, but if you're new to ASP then this MOD would be hard work.
for posting new topics and replying to existing ones. Points are also earned when changing ranks.
The Points can then be used to 'buy' things like custom avatars, glowing username in posts, custom title etc...
