I'm definitely keeping the domain name.
I'd have to buy another month of hosting in order to get a copy of all the user data. But then I always love the smell of a fresh new bulletin bored.
I'm going to overhaul the software to replace the chat with a more social media-style feed page with embedded images and videos, post editor, etc. Users will still be able to post to open chat with the post editor, and the message will appear in everyone's feed. The page will still read from top to bottom and automagically scroll to the bottom like a chat.
Clicking on a social media style post in your feed will open the post and its replies in the existing BBS UI.
PMs will be displayed in your feed when you're online, or the next time you log in. The same post editor will work for PMs.
When this upgrade is done, there will be a single feed script instead of separate feeds for chat, PMs, BBS, etc. This will ensure that info. gets updated everywhere at the same time, and eliminate a few synchronization issues.
