It is not a copy but can say both sites are as a "Team" :up:, obviously http://www.webmastersun.com is focus on internet marketing niche ( for internet marketers and webmasters) and covering more things like SEO, affiliate marketing, web design, make money online, social network marketing...etc then http://forumweb.hosting is all about web hosting field, it's a place to share and learning everything about web hosting. VPS, dedicated severs, cloud hosting or how to run a web hosting business...

Also we have already got an announcement here http://www.webmastersun.com/threads/...-Webmaster-Sun in months ago, maybe you could not read this.

Both forums are growing strongly on search engines and they are getting good traffic. I think, our targets are running right direction.

Change is not always good, even for the better when it comes to a well established forum. I'd recommend any new startup forums to have a well designed and functional responsive style since they will be attracting new younger "social media" types who all pretty much surf the web on mobile devices only, and don't understand how a forum should look or work.

I have to agree with you about these points, to be honest, I didn't care about responsive template in years ago but since the amount of users that using mobile devices increased dramatically in recent years then it's a must to have responsive design for forums, thus we convert vB default theme into responsive design and it is working as well and helping our forum more.
