Hi,

Well, it didn't help you at all, and it also didn't help you to revise your posting to help us. So, why should we help you now? You clearly don't care about our time, but you're demanding an awful lot of it.

You could help us help you by stating
- what it is you have so far: what version of arma are you running and where, what kind of forum you have and where
- what you want precisely
- what your own coding skills are
We can't do all the work for you, and we certainly can't do it if we don't know your current setup. We can't even start giving you hints. All those hints we can give people without knowing their situation and exact needs are on the Wiki.
If your forum is the one linked to in your profile, you're probably out of luck. You'll have two problems that are unlikely to get solved:
- you need to get the game data from your server to the forum server
- you need to install a mod you write yourself on the forum, which is not allowed.
The only way to get game stats into your forum is then via user banners. Install a web server on your game server and write a small generator that renders your users' stats into gif banners, and have your forum users use them as signature banners or avatars. Or generate those banners in a daily cronjob and upload them to a stronger web server, or even to the forum server; custom graphics may be allowed.
As far as I remember, Tank Program here had such a banner-rendering system once for his servers, and he may be willing to share the code.
