Running a search of the forums for myvbad also answers the question since it was explained when added and when asked about before. :)

From the <a href=http://sw-fans.net/forum/showthread.php?s=&threadid=10832&highlight=vbpad>To Upgrade, or not to Upgrade</a> thread:


vBpad - Your personal notepad! (v1.0)

Some users may find this handy if they are interupted in the middle of writing a post and have to leave their work PC or whatnot. You can copy your post into vBpad and it will be saved there until you remove it.

There are two places to access the vBpad, both within your control panel.

You can copy the contents of the vBpad and then paste them anywhere else you may need.

You can edit, delete, or add notes.

Split them into more than one note.

Better still write your posts in Notepad and Word first, save then post :)

But that doesn't help if you move from a stationary work computer to a seperate PC at home. ;) :p

If you don't think the vbPad feature is handy, don't use it, I do and do. :p

I've used vPad in the past to track a few roleplays. It's useful for littel things like that

E-mail Sir.The vBpad has the convenience of keeping everything in one spot, without the need of finding some seperate means of hanging onto things. Plus, it's pretty handy for just keeping track of a link or two. :)

I don't use it myself, because I rarely post from anywhere but home.
