Well for those who struggle to set up a mysql database, cronjobs will be their nightmare. I do know theres a way to emulate cronjobs, Vbulletin and other forums engines like MyBB all have this thing called scheduled tasks. The pseudo cronjob is executed whenever a user visits the site, it checks whether there are scheduled tasks to run. Its a cool idea, although for big sites this increases server load dramatically.
