Dear Users, I have breaking news that Referral Directory will be moving soon to another host. I asked how much it would cost for proboards to make me a plugin that is highly needed, and they gave me a quote of $1,500. So I am going to switch Referral Directory over to Mybb because Mybb has a plugin I am needing and I can use it for free.
If any users are against this decsision please let me know!
I will keep all users up to date here.
Thanks, Devin

A self-hosted site is always better. You took a good decision. Would all posts be transferred too?

newbb, Proboards has told me that I would have to pay $9.99 a month for at least 6 months before I could transfer the posts over. I even offered to pay so much to get the posts exported, but no they are not willing to help with that. There is no other way, so I will have to try to find out something on how to do it. So I am unsure what else to do, I may just have to start the community over and fresh, but until the time is right these forums will be here for all the users. I will keep everyone updated on the decisions and updates within this situation. ------ All my posts that I have made will be able to get switched over, but everyone else's posts is out of the question, unless I can hire someone to do it manually.

how long will it take site to be up and running, will there be some sort of delay on the new site I am actually working on the site now, and it should be finished as soon as I get everything set up. Once I get closed to finished I will be sending everyone an email with the situation.

EDIT: I have been working on the new forums and I have now got the memberships plugin set up and ready to roll! It's pretty cool and only $0.15 for 2 days of VIP membership. Is there anyone who may want to test it out when the site is up?
