Probably asked before, but have you ever considered upgrading Ozzu to a pay board like VBulletin or Invision? Seems like they are typically more stable with more features and whatnot. I know they aren't free, but with the size and success of this board I would imagine it might be worth it. I'm debating using VBulletin in the near future for my site and. or anything new I put together.

Define "upgrade" :)

The largest forum on the web runs phpBB, so it's perfectly stable with potentially millions of posts per day.

Registered users is nearly 3 million, which I'd say is pretty big :)

I think he's stored some of the older posts in an archive of sorts. I vaguely remember seeing a screenshot of these stats before and the post cound was around 750 million or so posts.

Im not really a fan of VBulletin or Invision.
They seem like really bloated forums full of pointless options and guff you don't need.

My new fave forum software is SMF, second is phpbb.
