Okay. So if that is indeed what you meant, then my first reply was correct. The flairs will be lost because they are part of how Forum displays the messages; not part of the messages themselves. The conversion process will copy the message content only.

The idea is that, after conversion, you won't be able to tell the difference between a converted basic (i.e. simply text) Forum post and something that was posted directly in Discussions. Complex Forum posts that contain things like tables will retain their tables and thus be identifiable as converted posts. The reason is that Discussions does not allow tables so conversion from a Forum post is the only way you could get one in a Discussions message.
