I'll keep it in mind. It's not all that critical, but my oldest forum has five years of posts in WebBBS that a lot of us are curious about. The main thing is that there would be a lot of manual editing after import, as I'd have to match old names and email addresses to current ones, and editing out sensitive data--nothing I couldn't handle but on the other hand, I don't have much time for it. If I could somehow find an older version of vB's Impex tool that supported my version of WebBBS, I could do it myself. And I know I probably have it somewhere, as I did it with a couple of other forums. Yet there are decades of hard drives, floppies, etc. And even in this set I want to import, our first 181 posts are missing...and I know I have a backup somewhere, although again, hundreds of floppies and a handful of Zip discs are something I don't have much time to go through.
