All posts, post counts everything would transfer to the new boards.

Unless I screw something up calmdown: Just kidding.

It would work this way. after purchasing a vB lic. I would test the upgrade on a backup of the forums. Test it a day or so (myself and the admin staff).

Then if that all works, I would be able to see how long it would take to move the production forums over so you guys know what's happening.

Move board to new home, add some pointers from the old forum url to the new url and bamn new board with all your info, posts, pms ready and waiting. It may not look this snazzy right off the bat, but that is something I can work on over time after the upgrade(s)

Only draw back is the forums may be a little slow while updating, xfering, moving things around and the forums will be down for the final move.
