I'm thinking of trying to integrate a rather simple game into a FUD forum. I've had the basic design in my head for a while and it makes sense to try and link it into a forum since it loosly boils down to petty diplomacy which means the players need to be able to communicate.

But anyway thats not my question and this is a question BTW.

But one of the things I want to do is associate some extra data with each forum user.

Is it a good idea to simply add these fields to FUDs user data chunk or should I create my own separate data and just index it using the FUD users ID?

Adding it to FUDs user data seems like the simplest way to go but I thought I should ask here to see if there are going to be any obvious/hidden problems with that before I go break stuff.

Adding extra user data seems like the sort of thing people would want to do as a hack for various reasons. But I haven't found any info, so if there is or examples, please point me at them Smile

This will be my first PHP/MYSQL attempt (but I've broken bigger and badder things in my time) so please forgive me if I'm using the wrong terminology.
