Proboards? Do you have any better platform to use than Proboards? It was reported the people randomly have their forums deleted with no reasons by Proboards. Choosing Proboards as your foundation really make me afraid about the future of your forum. It could be vanished anytime.

You could choose to host your own forum on the very server hosting this freebasic forum. The guy offer this for free.

I suggest using MyBB instead of the phpBB being used on this forum.

Your forum doesn't have much posts yet. So it's easy to migrate. Don't let it's too large and too late to migrate as your forum will grow bigger and bigger. If it got deleted for no reasons by Proboards themselves then it's a great disappoinment to both of you and the people registered and posted on your forum.

I have no idea if Proboards offers a way to migrate out of their platform to self host forum or not. I think not.
