New PIAF Forum + More

No, that was me. That was from my perspective - Ward didn't say any such thing officially. The only reason I said that was because Ward has mentioned in the past and has made evident that he is very security conscious. He probably wouldn't want to risk someone hacking the forums by having full access to the code in a chance to find an exploit - which would be easier with phpBB as it is open source compared to VBulletin where Ward has in fact mentioned, and I quote, a "security nightmare" until he fixed it.

Another reason I think phpBB was turned down was because as Ward stated earlier,

To my knowledge, phpBB doesn't have the capability to integrate the above mentioned things seamlessly.

I took note of the "Shared Server" comment earlier, and I believe I mentioned this in the past, but if you guys need/want something different from Shared Hosting then I have no issues providing a VPS to fit your needs...If I'm feeling particularly generous I may just throw a dedicated server your way. PM me if you want to discuss it further.

You're incredibly generous. Thank you, but...

Here's our dilemma. We have dozens of domains running dozens of different apps of varying complexity. Most of it is managed in cPanel and WHM. Our provider is extremely generous in their pricing and support. They make nightly backups for us between Dallas and New York. They keep the server current and secure... no small feat. Yes, we could do all of that but the issue is resources. For $1,000 a year (which we usually manage to raise from our users), we get about half of a mega-server. Frankly, it just isn't worth the headache to you or to us to save the $1,000.

Having said all of that, WE REALLY APPRECIATE YOUR OFFER!!!

Not a problem! However, if you ever want to reconsider feel free to let me know...its a standing offer. Since your running WHM/cPanel already it will make the migration process fairly simple (The only thing besides backing up/restoring the WHM/cPanel information would be updating the name server info).
