Forum Database Backup

Hello,
I would like to request a backup of my forum's database, as some insurance in case something goes wrong (given the current forum's size). Also, I would like to try out how it would work in a phpBB enviroment, so I would also need some advice/help on how to transfer the current forumotion database into a phpBB (not a complete transfer, more of a copy to try some things out, the current forum needs to remain operational)

Not even sure whether such a thing is possible or not but if so, I'd really appreciate some help with this matter.

Thanks in advance.

Sorry, but Forumotion does not give out the database.

You can't.

Download what? That just backup your forums to a certain date & time. It's a rollback.

That's the only way you can backup your forums.

i don't understand i want to leave forumotion
