You will have to register again at the new site, but when you register as Vlada it will ask for your old password and copy all your old info over. This way, no one will lose their name in the move.

So in one line: both. Hope that answers your question.

What about old guides, profession section, screenshots etc? There is a lot of knowledge not to mention memories there, it would be a shame to lose all that.

You will archive old forums, but what about re-posting those threads? Would that be an option later?

Yes, that's the plan. We'll have an archive of the forums so you can repost anything we need (which is obviously a lot - guides, info, collaborations etc).

I don't know if an automatic mechanism is possible, but you'll certainly be able to copy/paste. Its a pain to be sure, but it may just be a technical concern.
