    Default MyBB?

    I think it would be a great idea if HabboxForum change software to MyBB.

    Pros:

    1)It's free
    2)It's open source
    3)You can download loads of addons for free.
    4)Much better features.


    Cons:
    1) At current there is no merge system to migrate from HabboxForums'a version of vbulletin to MyBB.

    Last notes:

    Hopefully the merge system for MyBB will be updated allowing HabboxForum to get (in my opinion) the best forum software. Link to merge software: here.

    I don't see this happening. I shouldn't have to write out a whole paragraph explaining why I disagree so I won't.

    The first thing everyone would say is "omg HabboxForum noobs on MyBB" and plus vBulletin is much better for new users.

    Although MyBB is probably the best free forum software and is very functional, I do not think that HabboxForum should move from vBulletin to MyBB. Mainly because a lot of things would change, like the moderation system which is completely different on MyBB.

    Not online very often

    VB is better imo, and it won't happen anyway.

    At the end of the day it's up to general management, I just want to know why it won't happen/why people don't want it.

    Because all the pathetic, failed fansites use MyBB and Habbox won't sink that low. MyBB is crap.

    It makes Habbox look free & cheap, plus the features on VB are better (from forum management experience).

    Just because some failed fansites use it doesn't mean MyBB is crap. Some of the biggest forums use MyBB.

    MyBB isn't great, and doesn't have any kind of professional support. vB is fine for Habbox's needs and IMO if they moved over to MyBB everything would fall apart and it'd be the death of Habbox.

    Now, IPB on the other hand...
