So the time to move on from 20 year old forum software is upon us.. I mean it was a decade or so ago, but now we REALLY have to move on.

The options are to upgrade to xenforo (new version of vbulletin). This is the easiest to migrate to, has the closest interface, and is the best way to keep things the same

The problem is it costs $200 for a license, plus $60 per year for updates and support

There are free options that I could look into, but before that I want to see if someone wants pool together and chip in for the upgrade

The other option is to let it finally die. It seems to be getting less and less busy over the weeks.
