Why do all forums like this look and run like they're trapped in 2004

Because that requires effort and time better spent building things for Forum Battles and Brikwars.

We had a custom format with a whole custom graphics set. But phpbb2 had too many security holes and I had to upgrade to phpbb3, and was never quite able to get custom graphics set up for the new version.

why are security issues a problem? I say let the forum get hacked, it's all part of the authentic 2007 message board feel!
