Suggestion: Move to a more modern Forum system

This is just my suggestion. How about changing the current forum system to a more modern ones like SMF or vBulletin? Maybe it is just me, but I find it really hard to find information here (the old ones) because the search feature is not very powerful and the threaded list is not very intuitive.

Even Green Chip Message board login requires .htaccess login, which I think it is very outdated and unnecessary, because you have to memorize 2 different logins for the forum.

Thank you.
