There does look to be an extra end or a missing conditional in this area of the code.

script/import_scripts/vbulletin.rb

main


      
          puts "", "importing posts..."
          
          post_count = mysql_query(<<-SQL).first["count"]
            SELECT COUNT(postid) count
              FROM #{TABLE_PREFIX}post p
              JOIN #{TABLE_PREFIX}thread t ON t.threadid = p.threadid
             WHERE t.firstpostid <> p.postid
          SQL
          
          last_post_id = -1
          
          batches(BATCH_SIZE) do |offset|
            posts = mysql_query(<<-SQL).to_a
                SELECT p.postid, p.userid, p.threadid, p.pagetext raw, p.dateline, p.visible, p.parentid
                  FROM #{TABLE_PREFIX}post p
