Yes, you read it right, how to convert from MyBB 1.8 to 1.6? Is it the same process as of converting MyBB 1.8 to MyBB 1.6 or a different process? Just asking because I don't want to lose my posts and members.

there is no ready made script to convert MyBB 1.8.x to MyBB 1.6.x
it is a manual work requiring good amount of time & efforts and you may have to hire someone experienced ..
can you tell us the main reason for reverting back to MyBB 1.6.x

I don't like MyBB 1.8, that's all, can you tell me how to do this manually?

in simple words, you should have a blank database with the data structure of MyBB 1.6.x and
take required fields data from MyBB 1.8.x database backup & import them into 1.6.x database.

Your best option is to restore a backup. Downgrades are not supported and you may be refused support for issues which occur as a result of trying to downgrade.
