That would be nice, I posted a "farewell" to her on my blog last night tho because she no longer mine. And she is no longer the forum I started, she's yours now. So I had to say goodbye to her as she was and learn to know the new one.

She went thru many changes over the years with me and started as a phpbb forum, within a month, I moved to vb, stayed there to about November 2009 when I split my forums into a general chat and a graphics and is how you found it. She ended up on the smf platform. She's also had four names. This is number five.

Take good care of her as I know you will.

And I will be around but I have another forum, her sister to help along.

Thx for the info, mind if I ask why you went to SMF, and not back to phpbb after moving away from vBulletin?

SMF was easy to handle than phpbb and easier to upgrade. I liked the themes I had found on there. Liz

Just wanted to bump this and say Thank You again to everyone. We're averaging 150 post a day and it's all thanks to you!

I have 2 small tech forums that I'll be merging in shortly, I'll update this thread when those are completely imported. Should be 5-6,000 new post and 500 or so new members.

I've put some thread prefixes on the marketplace, if you were wondering. You can now have For Sale, Looking to Buy, Trade, and Giveaway in front of your thread in bold.
