Ok I wasn't sure how to phrase that but basically. I have a vbulletin forum what I want to happen since I know the software's hash stuff differently is either when someone registers an account for the game to have it register a duplicate user on the forum or when someone registers on the forum have it create a duplicate user in the game. I am hoping there is someone who can at-least give some idea of how to do this on here.

I've never used vbulletin myself but I did do this on my website once (on my test server anyway but decided not to go with it as people on my server were allowed up to 10 game accounts each per web account). I would suggest looking at the registration page or validation page and look for the code that adds the data into the database for the forum and then create another database connection that adds the same data to the game database as well.

Obviously you don't want to use the same hash as the forum as it'll likely be different from the game database so use the raw password before the forum hashes it and do another hash that'll work with your authd.

If you have any experience with PHP then it should be a fairly easy task.
