Or will we have to resign up and start everything all over?

I
think Osay said that the new forums don't have a gold or shop system...
But I'm not positive. I'll have to look at the other thread :x

Pets will be gone, and the shop system in general.
Gold can be imported, but I'm still thinking if I should start a new gold system and a new shop that's better or try to keep this one working and import stuff.

Yeah taking a pic of my stuff on the very last day.
This is sad, but hey, maybe you could find something better for the forum gold?
Like, if somebody made a graphic shop, people paid with their forum gold...?

There's already a graphic shop available, and it's tons better than this one (you can even organize your icons in order that you want). But it doesn't have the ability to sell name changes or font colors or any of the other stuff yet, graphics only and that's it. The developer wants to add those things but he doesn't know when. So we might end up with only half the shop we have now if he doesn't do it by the time I'm ready to deploy the new forum.
I can also get the gold imported, but for the gold I'm not sure if we should just do a whole new system and start from scratch. Instead of importing there might also be an option to give everyone gold based on their posts and other gold-giving actions that already exist in the database, but using the new configurations for how much gold a post is worth and all that, so I might just do that. My goal with that is to reduce inflation and increase the value of gold. So a pet might be worth 25 gold instead of 5000, but that 25 gold is "worth" a lot more than it is right now, because it'll be harder to get, and there might be a lot more uses for it too like games in the future.
Also to keep track of your existing pets I plan to keep an old version of Nation running, but closed off to new registration and completely locked to new posts/threads/PMs or anything (a read-only forum).
