    MyBB to vBulletin

    Hello everyone. I'm currently running a forum powered by MyBB (MyBulletinBoard) and i'm just so sick of the bugs and errors. I'm ready to step up to vBulletin. Are there any convert scripts for MyBB RC4 that carry members/threads/post/pm's over to vBulletin2 or vBulletin3? If not would anyone be willing to make one so that i can move to the best forum software out there?

    Thanks for taking time to read this.

Jerry -the guy who creates the importers- needs a test db to create an importer. you could send him a private message: http://www.vbulletin.com/forum/priva...m&userid=24628 and request an importer to be written for mybb
