Will you transfer the posts from this forum to the new one, or will they be lost forever?

I don't know if I feel like transferring all of them but I could transfer some of them.

Anything specific you wanted?

I am not worried about specific topics yet, but it is always after a forum has disappeared that we need to look up information that was in the forum

I don't like to see these things disappear.

As the aministrator of this forum, do you have any feature to export all the posts as a text file, database or other format? That would be better than just losing everything, even if it is not possible to import these in the new forum. You just need to make it available somewhere in case someone need it.

The same question is applicable to George and Alandale: if your "official" forums are to be moved to the new popup-free ones, then what will happen to all the posts at easyboard? Can you export them and put them online somewhere?
