Then it's the right choice for me too!
A question: How's the new Brawldomain's google ranking going next to the old one? Has there been a loss of rank associated with it because of the move, or trouble establishing rank for the new one?
Oh - How'd you get a domain name to mask the Proboards one like that {Brawldomain.com} I'm thinking of doing the same thing in preparation for a move if I do one, and then just switching that .com address over to the new site. Would that also preserve any rank that the established domain has, when the actual site did a switcheroo underneath the domain name? Sorry to ask so many questions on this, it's just that I don't know of anyone else who has accomplished all the stuff that I WANT to do.
The thing about the pagerank. I've only been concentrating on "http://www.brawldomain.com --- and that url is coming with me, and all it's backlinks, which will soon redirect to brawldomain.com/index.php for SMF
About masking the domain over the proboards url, you'll have to use "Manual Domain Hosting" on proboards support site, in the forum support section (it's sticked up top). You'll have to buy the domain, redirect it's DNS servers to proboards, then purchase $14 credits in your proboards adminCP, thats what proboards charges a year.
My main concern, was the ads removal service was sucking me dry, spending from $32-$48 a month. Now, I just pay $12 a month for hosting, Ad FREE.
CloverField, I could have went vB, but seriously why? SMF is very easy to use, and has all the features I could ever ask for with my forum

Thanx everyone for the kind words, loving the new forum, and seems to be a successful move for members, as in the first 24 hours already had 80 members log into their new SMF accounts
