    you could perhaps put them on the same url, and sort out a single sign in type mod? that is a horrible solution lol but could help in some way idk

      The new VB5 forum only has 82 members and 200 something topics and so could just renumber those before trying to merge data from VB4. It really does not matter afterwords if there are new profile ID numbers or IDs for Topics. I would just rebuild sitemap and Google will eventually re-index all the new IDs so no issue there.

        Definitely not. Like to KISS.
