Moving the IMG Forums

So its finally come down to the time where I need to move the IMG forums around. We are shifting servers, and in the process the new server won't run old code. IPB v3 is old code... so old it will break on the newer PHP/MySQL backends.

I have dwindled down the change to going with either MyBB or phpBB.

MyBB seems to have a more clear cut conversion system supporting IPB v3 to their latest MyBB version 1.8. It is also visually more modern out of the gate with many themes to pick from without having to make our own (maybe).

phpBB has some hackish hackjob where you have to convert to something older, then convert again to something newer. Also its default themes look like something people of IMG would come to expect from the 90s. So thats maybe a plus? LOL.

Technically they seem about the same... phpBB has more support for more plugins and extensions (but honestly, I don't see a need for 99% of them).

I'm leaning toward MyBB, though through discussion, you all may make a compelling argument to go with whichever.
