    MyBB isn't that bad, but the skin you're using really doesn't make it look good...

    You have 2000+ members, I suggest upgrading your forum software to something like vBulletin or IP.Board, they deserve the best after all, if you can't afford the software, ask for donations or stick up ads...

    As for content, you have a very wide range of topics and subject matter, but this is good, and a potential advertiser would love it..

    One thing which strikes me is that you have two banners displayed on your portal, and the side columns look very squashed..

    Overall looks like an active forum, but you could improve the look.

    MyBB isn't bad at all, and why would he have the need to move? There are LARGE MyBB forums out there, so MyBB can handle, plus MyBB is one of the best softwares so they are already getting *the best*.

    Just wanted to point that out.

    @ Ben The LiteBlu theme doesn't go with the forum, maybe you should keep an eye on the themes me and Dave will release on our Design site. It's not yet opened 'cause we are customizing it to the max for the users to have a pleasant visit.

    For now, may I suggest trying themes from ivGeo?

    @Mikey: We had vBulletin before, but a couple weeks ago the site was hacked. I'm currently still working on fixing up what happened and why it wouldn't work when fresh files were uploaded overwriting the hacked files.

    @FMB: I'll look into ivGeo's themes - thanks!

    EDIT: Looking at them right now, what do you suggest would go well with my forum? I like them all, but it would help to have your input as well.

    It looks nice overall. :)

    It's a bit "modification happy", meaning that there are quite a few additional modifications and/or plugins installed that the board could do without. For example: it looks live you've bridged the forum with MKPortal. To be perfectly honest, I've never been too fond of their portal management script and as such, I feel that combining this with MyBB is hindering the community somewhat.

    Most likely a SQL overwrite of one of your templates. Most likely header, headinclude or FORUMHOME. The exploit was probably through one of your addons or you're using an outdated version. Fix isn't hard though.
