My only real suggestion would be to allow members to get (buy) extra MySQL databases via points from ushop.

I really don't see anyone would need to use more the 5, ever. Your never going to be using 5 at the same time, so why don't use use one database for multiple things? I know a lot of scripts allow you to use something before the actual data, so it can be reused. I think innovation is the price of a new database.

Well, go ahead smarty pants and write a tutorial on how to do that and state some scripts that allow you to do that!

If you prefix your tables in you're databases you can fit alot of data into one DB, for ipb forums the prefix is ipb_ and phpbb has its own prefix which means you can install alot onto one db. I havent tried this but it must be posible, 5 Databases is more than enough.

Me neither, i would rather have 1 database to 1 script. It is easier and is easier to maintain and backup if something goes wrong. Since some database script can sometimes have error, merging 2 scripts into 1 database without a good knowledge of what you are doing will most likely end up in more errors etc. Even though i know it is posible, Is there anyone here who would actually have the time to figure out how to do it and actually do it?
