I have similar question/problem.
I've got 2 new user types and I'll collect other details(besides username,pass,email) about them (different details for each user).
So is it clever to use existing user mechanism joomla uses or. should I use my own(new) database tables and synchronize users with joomla default system or something? I need a suggestion please, tnx :)
