That issue can likely be pretty easily resolved. All I'd have to do is add custom BBCodes to the forum database that match Enjin's. For example, both this forum and Enjin use the same exact coding for something like bolded text: [b][/ b]. However, they use different codes for something like text size. This forum uses percentile ranges for text sizing whereas Enjin uses a simple 1-6 scale that's far more limited.
I could likely add Enjin's codes so they'd be recognized (save for text sizing most likely) so long as I know which codes are different (quoting, image tags, ect?). A quick glance leads me to believe that not many added codes would really be needed (mainly quotes and text alignment).
Switching hosts would likely do very little good. We currently use Host Gator, one of the top end hosts out there. I'm assuming instead of hosts, you instead mean forum software? If so, phpbb is what we use now. And again, it's one of the top end forum software on the market. It's extremely flexible and can be customized into just about anything. Should there be popular support, we could always switch over to Enjin. However, doing so would cause us to lose everything, including the wiki. In addition, Enjin has other limitations that these forums do not (such as limited usernames that are shared across all boards, less customization flexibility, etc). The only thing Enjin has that this forum under phpbb probably never could have is the ability to keep track of character levels by itself. And I think this forum could technically do even that but I wouldn't have a clue where to start (I think Eorzeapedia has this feature so asking its admins for step-by-step directions could possibly help).
