For me the choice of timing was easy. I just started my first forum and chose phpBB3 RC1. I wanted to be cutting edge and its free. I never go with anything that says "unstable" like RC2 at the time. It is challenging, though, so many settings.

Yeah, it's a change from the 2 series. Back then you needed many hacks, now a lot of features are pre-installed.

We were hacked so we started fresh into phpBB 3.0, I've created a custom template, built custom pages off it, and have a portal running that I've adjusted to my liking.

The COnversion was perfect, converted everything for me. The preinstalled theme (prosilver) was pretty decent, I mean, almost every phpBB3 site used prosilver..
