All the unconfirmed signatures have the same info except for Date Confirmed.
Nearly 68,000 signatures take up much more than just a few megs.
Add the forums (which take up a fair bit of space and will take up even more as membership grows) and server logs, and it gets crowded pretty fast in there.
I will work diligently on the new site over the coming weeks and hope to have it done in less than a month.
I'm seriously considering developing my own forum software as well. Even the latest version of FuseTalk doesn't have the functionality and layout I'd like, and reverse engineering the software and making modifications would be tedious. The other benefit to developing my own software would be easy integration with the site as a whole; I could make the layout and content customizable for each user and have a single username/password for everything (user comments on news/articles, art gallery, forums, etc.). My own forum software would also be something I could sell on the side to provide another revenue stream.
The downside would be moving the data from this forum to the new one. Not terribly difficult, but definitely an annoyance.
