vB 3.6.4 to phpBB converter, does that even exist?
As my title states, I'm looking for a vB 3.6.4 to (latest) phpBB forums. I've snooped around here and on a couple of other places but I can't seem to find anything.

Anyone have an answer to that? My vB license is coming to it's term and I don't feel like renewing it. And I'm changing the way the forum is going.

Thanks in advance.

Not sure if this will do it or not: phpBB • View topic - [SUPPORT] vBulletin 3.0.x to phpBB

I would suggest looking around the forum that came from and see if there is one for 3.6.x.

Small question.

WHY would you want to ditch vBulletin for PHPBB?

Biggest reason? Money.

My license will expire in about a month and I don't feel like paying for a forum that does not really bring money after a year running.

Next best reason would be that I know phpBB quite well and it's not the case with vB. I have no clue what I'm doing most of the time and it's like Mambo / Joomla for me: too much useless stuff. Useless for me anyway

Not everyone can afford vBulletin. My licence runs out soon, I will probably convert to SMF

Just a side note, the vB 3.6.4 is not the latest... and it wasn't yesterday either.
Latest version is 3.6.7

I know. I haven't updated in a while. That's not the point anyway

I found what I was looking for, thanks to Larry.
