OK - thread tagging has been turned off - the search button is more than fine to search for posts on the forum.
I'm sure there are tools to convert to phpbb - but I think we'll stick with vBulleting for now as we've paid for the licence (no its not a hacked copy!!) and I doubt phpbb has any benefits over vBulletin that would make the extra work required worthwhile.
Anyway - can we please keep the posts in here on topic - thanks. :)
