Um also if you did miss it the poll says "What forum software did you use before XF" to me that would imply that I was using x Software now I have changed to XF software or did I miss something here lol

It's only natural that most of the people switching are coming from VB because VB is the most used forum package out there. Everything is relative. If you asked new Apple computer buyers what their last computer ran if it was not an Apple, chances are that the vast majority of people would say that it was a Windows based system. If you get a 95% rating on that question, you may want to attempt to say that the majority of Windows users were switching to Apple. But you'd be wrong.

One thing XF have going for them is a significantly lower price which could make a difference for people on a limited budget who want to start a forum or those using a much older version of VB who want to upgrade.
