Car: RS2'd 95 Audi S-6 '06 Jetta TDI Rep Power: 24     |  Just curious, but did you consider SMF when you made this switch? I run a few forums myself (smallish ones with less than 600 users, but very active) and I am currently in the process of converting everything over to Simple Machines Forum. I looked at vbulletin, but SMF just seems to win out over just about everything from my point of view. Just curious to see why you chose VB, and what other forums were considered. |

Car: Audi TT '08 Rep Power: 164 | We did, and almost every other software out there. There's a thread already on this, naturally I'm lazy to dig it up for you, so search for it  |
