Full Version: Merging older than 1.4 Databases into 1.6

I guess it seems a bit odd that versions older than 1.4 cannot be merged into 1.6. This especially poses an issue if the 1.2 for example upgrade to 1.6 doesn't take. By not allowing a merge option for older versions of databases, it seems that anything older than 1.4 leaves users the option of starting a forum from scratch or deleting the forum and forgoing it altogether. There are no other options such as this being my own case.
Who's uses 1.2? It's 2 years old.
The Upgrade process does work and it works very well. Tested by tens of thousands of people.

Of course, you need to follow the [Wiki: Upgrading] (Broken link, head over to docs.mybb.com instead) instructions.

If you are having any problems with the Upgrade process 99.99% of the time, it is to do with a user not following instructions properly at some point in time.
