Have you always used phpBB or did you convert your community from other software?

When I first attempted to build my own forum I was looking at other software but had problems trying to install it.

I cant remember the name of it now though.

In the end, I decided to try phpBB (version 2.0.4) and since that day have run phpBB though I did dabble with SMF at one point but found phpBB to be far more versatile to work with.

I started off with EZ Board but when they started all that Yuku crap I decided to use phpBB.

phpBB is the first software I ever used on my own server in a live environment. I had used a couple of remotly hosted solutions before moving to one I hosted - they were Everyone.net and HomePageTools.com.
