I have a large, active UBB 5.45c with several hacks running at forums.cross-x.com. I need to move to a SQL-based solution and am considering vBulletin.
There are two fields added to the member files-- one for avatar and one for AIM nick.
There is a forum where posts do not count in postcounts.
The topic threads have an icon added for AIM.
How easy would it be to convert my board to vBulletin? Do you you provide custom conversion scripts or would I be responsible for writing one?
Also, if you could point me to some head to head comparisons with the other similar options--phpbb2 and yabbse, I would appreciate it. I tend to prefer commercial software but I have heard strong arguments for all of the choices.
Thanks.
