As you can imagine, there are lots and lots of options in vBulletin. Plus all the hacks available on vBulletin.org, etc. Thought this would be a good thread to get your thoughts on how I've set things up and any possible changes. If you want to check out vBulletin.org and find a good hack, feel free to ask about it here.
Here are a couple to start with:
Sidebar Options
The sidebar blocks currently allow some limited options. In addition to the number of characters from the title, post, etc., here are some of the areas.
Any additional tabs up top that would be useful? I added "League Info" and "Events" for now to try and link things in better to the main site. Eventually in the new style I plan to do this better -- including linking league profiles, etc.
What other things have you seen on boards or on here that you have questions about?

- Blogs: displayed by either latest posts, latest replies, most replied or most viewed (currently set to latest posts)
- New Posts: can be limited by number and by forums, etc.
- Threads: displayed by latest, latest reply, most replied, most viewed. I set it to most replied so far. The latest can be found by going to "What's New" or "New Posts."
- Social Group Discussions: I don't think these are used enough yet to include
- Tag Cloud -- we don't really use tags, so I don't think this is useful
- HTML blocks -- like the one where I tested the CSWA video. Other things could be added obviously.
