custom users routes? [SOLVED]

Nice hack Dustin. I love this about codeigniter. It's fairly easy to modify.

Just wondering, will all your URL's have a username? I like WanWizards approach of checking for a valid username. I know that's a lot of overhead, but you could cache usernames in memory (memcache or APC, etc.) and bypass your routing code when the username is invalid (and thus use URI paths where a username is not required.) If you actually need to do this, you might want to make sure that your users can never register a username that you ever anticipate using in your URL's.

Glad you figured it (WanWizard gave much better advice, as usual.)
