Can you name some of the commercially successfull MyBB forums that you have come across?
if you know
hf, that (alone) appears to be a commercial successful forum.
there are many successful MyBB forums though not commercial in nature.
http://worldbeyblade.org is "non-profit" because they reinvest all income into events and community, but they have a solid enough cash flow.

That's a shame, it's one of the nicer sites running MyBB.

Looks like a huge community comprised of a variety of people. Glad to know there exist mighty MyBB forums.

Teso fan site.... though it doesnt look as big as the above HF forum, looks nice. Any particular reasons it migrating from MyBB?

Looks like a decent community. Thanks for the share. So, out of the 3 sites mentioned so far, I see 2 of them are GAMING.

Mm, we're moving to Curse's in-house CMS because it'll make it more streamlined when we need to pull data directly from the game onto the site. MyBB doesn't have the functionality to do that (or at least not without a lot of work), so that's a big part of why it's being moved over. I'll miss using MyBB on TESOF, but it's a change that will make the site flourish.

Its a total shame. TESOF is my FAVE MyBB forum. Have you asked anyone in development about this? If it was to go big board with the move to Curse they might help you out.
