Just some I thought would be good addition to GTP

Private Messaging Attachments
Allows you to attach stuff in private messages. Not quite sure if we can do that already, but anyway...

Change Username
Allows users to change their username from the Control Panel. There are limits as to how many times you can change your username, how many posts you have to have before you can change it, etc.

Username Alias
If you change your username, people are going to think who the hell is he. This hack brings up a list of the user's previous names usernames in his/her's profile.

Spell Checker
Spell checker for all the people that can't spell.
 
Those are currently some of the best hacks out there. We will have to see what Jordan says about this. Although the more hacks you install the more time it takes for the page to load.
 
As long as I can change my name to "Race Idiot" Just once, would be fine for me :)

Although the spell checker would be a good addition, seeing as sometimes I have to actually cut bits of text into MS word to see if its spelt correctly. Im not too good at spelling you see :)

No, if you are using space on my server for pictures and files, I want it to be available to the community as a whole. Use your own email or instant messaging service to exchange personal files.

Change Username
Allows users to change their username from the Control Panel. There are limits as to how many times you can change your username, how many posts you have to have before you can change it, etc.

Although some are bound to disagree, I don't want to have to keep guessing and checking user profiles every few days while members change their username for novelty. If you have a problem with your username, I will not mind changing it for you.

Spell Checker
Spell checker for all the people that can't spell.

Your link is directed to another hack, so you might want to get post it again. (However, I think software called ieSpell would probably be much more useful to individual users than a central spell checking dictionary.)
 
I'll have to check out that ieSpell... Also glad to hear I won't have to go nuts trying to figure out who is who with the name changing game.
Oh and...
Jordan, good to see you back. Hope all went well on your trip. :)
