Well if you can find something that will convert this forum into something better than phpBB, we'd love to hear about it. What don't you like about phpBB btw?

The Machine's forum is phpBB... it's easy to work with and I REALLY like it.
(Posts hardly ever go to hell, honest! :p )

Yab just might be what PFOnline found to use to convert this. I was wondering why Dyolf dislikes phpBB so much, and if he knows of any tools that can convert this forum into something other than phpBB that he likes better. Personally I love it and that's the only type of forum I use on my own sites. I recently heard of "Simple Machines Forum" and I'm going to look into that to see how I like it, since lots of people seem to love it and I've seen lots of sites using it.

I didn't experience spyware when I last used it..... but I'm going to look into it, I visit a few forums that use vBulletin.

Quote from a vBulletin user:

"vB has absolutely no spyware in it. If specific forums result in you obtaining spyware, that's on them for putting it there. It also doesn't have any known security holes at present either (3.6.7 I mean, which is latest) - 3.6.5 and earlier have a potentially exploitable sql injection loophole in calender.php. phpBB on the other hand can have sql injected all over the place. SMF is apparently quite secure but generally a bit sh*t."

It also turns out that phpBB has many security holes because it's purely made with php, whereas vBulletin isn't.

I hope this isn't the end of PFO but if we get a new forum and can still view this one I guess it will be OK.
