If at first you don't succeed, use a bigger hammer. If that fails, read the manual.

works perfect on my test site but what about a forum with 100k members and 400k posts? lol

Yah, I image that it could pose a bit of a load on the server while it is running. ::)

Upload a MySQL backup of your current forums to your test forum and see how it runs. Be wise to have a backup anyways before doing this.

well it's on my dedicated server and it's quite powerful so it should be more than capable of doing this and yes i'm going to do two backups before i even think about doing this ;)

Good luck with it. :)
