Good point. Because if tons of people stop using phpBB, and flock to other BB systems, I'm sure the developers will keep updating and supporting phpBB just for you.
Obviously, you are correct. I was just making a flip comment.
That said, I don't think anywhere near "most people" are going to go elsewhere. It's possible they may, if it appears that progress has ceased for some amount of time (such as we had a couple of years ago). However, given the current status of things -- bringing on new developers, regular commits, etc. -- it seems unlikely that we will see such a drought. I don't think Twisted's concern was founded at all in that regard.
