Sorry if this has been asked before... but to the owners/moderators of the message board... has there been any suggestion of moving to vBulletin (http://www.vbulletin.com/) ? Because its database is managed in SQL and the interface in php, searching and managing it is much faster than UBB... Also, migrating to vBulletin from UBB is fairly easy (can import members, forums, posts, and archives)... http://www.vbulletin.com/manual/import.html

Oh, and the interface is nearly identical to UBB... One of my favorite discussion forums that uses vBulletin is PDABuzz.com (http://www2.pdabuzz.com/Forums/index.php) for PDA users.

wwwthreads gets my vote, actually.. I've looked at vbulletin and lots of others. A software change is under consideration.

I am vbullertin and its a nice piece of software, however before you actually make a purchase you might want to see if you can sucessfully import all the existanting ubb info, I had a ubb and since I modified it so much, I had a hard time importing all the info, I lost 2/3 of the data base. check it out.
