I am setting up a vbulletin forum on our team site and i would like to transfer all our old stuff from the old forum...

It would be going from a SMF ( Simple Machine Forum ) to Vbulletin 3.8

Can some one help me please?

once you have vB installed, you can install ImpEx, from the members area of vbulletin.com, and this will help you set the import process between your old forum and the new... the documentation is straight forward... no need of an external coder for that in 99% of the situations.

It is not a VB3 engine, just a parsed copy!
