Weird though, I thought Vbulletin was a spin off of PHPBB and PHPBB supports lots of DB's.

Yes, and on even more ancient and decrepit crap than we are apparently.

VBulletin is pay software, so it shouldn't be a fork of phpbb.

Yes, someone paid money for this turd. hehe.

Seriously, there are people here literally begging to throw time, talent, knowledge, and money at the issue.

Absolutely.

Most of the time it isn't too bad. We don't have some of the 3+ features (like REP), but I have been able to mod a few little things in (like a quick reply box).

The worst problem we have is I have to mod new registrations because we get about 30 registrations a day now from spam bots. There is no CAPTCHA in our registration.

Okay, just talked to Kyle. He is saying that we could have the new hardware on the 16th, after that I will work to make sure we get all the software we need to get going as fast as possible.

I did say that we may just bring over the current data as an archive database, to give us a clean database to start with. I'll try to think how to do the users, whether to import them or start fresh.

I believe Pats Planet will be a part of this move as well, I'll work with Undertaker on that one. I might try unifying the two a little closer together, but eh, who knows.

morphius
cross your fingers.

You know how to reach me, and feel free to email. If it is at all possible with us, we would like to keep our history. I've spent a lot of time and energy helping to make Patriots Planet what it is, so I am willing to help however I can with any issues.

Google may have provided an answer for the server busy.

"admincp -> Options -> Server Settings and Optimization Options

Simultaneous Sessions Limit and *NIX Server Load Limit"

Verify your nix# is set to 0.

If you migrate the current database it should bring over the user.

There should be a users table in the database, and another table with the hash values of the passwords.

...assuming VB hasn't changed their hash algorithms or their seed.

I am pretty sure they started using a SALT now so you would have to run their upgrade scripts to convert the users to the latest build then import them into the clean install of the forums.

Or just run the upgrade scripts and keep all the worthless poop threads around.
