Re: Disgusted by the moderators on this site
@camlorn:
Because of the PunBB copyright message ending in 2010, I'd hazard a guess that the forum is running version 1.2.23 (the only stable version released in 2010). The latest version is 1.4.4, released in 2015. I don't know whether PunBB strictly follows semantic versioning, but in theory the only big upgrade issues should be between versions starting with 1.2, 1.3, and 1.4 so not all the intermediate versions would need upgrading. Based on this idea, I did a bit of online digging and found out that the latest version of PunBB comes with a migration script to change 1.2 databases to 1.4 databases (it is described in the README on GitHub). So it might not be all that complicated, and if the database has custom weirdness in it it should be possible to modify the script or write another script to make sure it gets copied over.
That said, the point is more or less moot if nobody has backend access to the server.
