A couple of years ago I helped someone build a forum. Over the course of the two years the forum has had times of being extra slow and the founder wants to quit. I have encouraged her not to quit but it is getting more and more difficult to keep her going on. A few of her members are members at my own forum. Since both are phpbb forums is there anyway to combine the two and bring some of her fantastic threads to my place if she decides to go ahead and dissolve her forum?

You cannot bring her Data to yours. Either you stay in one and move from the other one to the one you're going to be using. In other words it's not possible.

Thank you for your quick response. I will discuss this with her. I think in time her forum will become outstanding if she only sticks with it.

Or you can always make an announcement that you will be moving to a new forum, Have all members join the new forum. Then leave the old forum open for a while if any of the members would like to copy their post and add to the new place.
