I am starting to think the last forum I set up was a mistake in more ways than one. I offered to take it over after it had been hacked a couple of months back, not realizing that one of the moderators had set up his own forum in the meantime and had used the Private messaging system to broadcast the fact that the site was hacked and that everyone should move to the new forum…his forum. So after spending a couple of weeks recovering the forum, converting it from PhpBB to Vbulletin, and customizing the skin, it is basically a ghost forum and worst yet, I have lost interest in maintaining it. While I am currently into the forum for less than $400.00, the good news is that I can use the licenses I purchased to start a different forum or sell them if I shut it down. The only real loss will be the time I spent in getting the site back online. A major cost, but one I am prepared to live with at this point rather than put more time into the project. The time I could better spend on other projects.
Ever thought you made a mistake?
