    Have any of of you started to use PhpBB 3 yet?

    What do you think about it?


    I was just interested to see what others thought about it, because I may be using it with Future Forums I decide to make.

    Currently im using the phpbb3 for a new forum, and its allright but very diffrent from the phpbb2.

    Some sais that the phpbb3 is the new "free Vbulletin"

    The phpbb3 have a GREAT future ahead

    BUT the phpbb experts and coders at phpbb.com says that is not total stabel yet to use - wait a few months until they say its stable enough or do as i ... take a chance ;)

    I was kinda bummed about the -phpbb3, I was expecting more things like RSS features, and stuff. But I guess its free and still good.

    Im still using phpBB2 - phpBB3 isn't stable. When phpBB3 is given the final release, then the script maker for my free forum hosting site will develop it.

    It's to risky to use it to early on.

    I've been using it since the release of RC1 and I think it's fantastic. Leaps ahead of phpbb2, and it took the best of Categories Hierarchy and implemented the features beautifully, as well as other cool features.

    phpBB 3 is not yet stable but its good if you use it on a brand new forum w/ clean installation since you wont have anything to loose.:)

    phpBB3 final is practically around the corner. They've opened up 3.0 Style submissions so I can't see any drastic changes coming.

    phpBB3's new admin interface is the beauty behind it. The improvement is night and day.

    It isnt recommended unless phpBB releases the final stable version.

    currently i am using phpbb2 and its running fine i will upgrade to phpbb3 as soon as they release the full stable version of ther software.
    phpbb3 is the best free forum software.

    phpbb3 is really great but I'd suggest to wait untill it's stable. Better safe than sorry, right?
