I don't understand why phpBB, which was 75% unoriginal before, would want to change it to make it 99.99% unoriginal (I'm giving it .01% because it's title "phpBB" is original).

phpBB 2.0 RC-2 - http://phpbb.sourceforge.net/phpBB2/

Maybe they knew I criticize board scripts to much and wanted to get it away from me. Anyway, can someone show me an example of an unmodified phpBB 2.0 board? If it's as bad as the first one, I think I'm going to throw up.

I would rather choose a vB style than one which sux but is original.

If anyone is having problems with installing a board, email me and I`ll do it for you.

I feel
PHPBB2 hard to install because of the DSN file which says critical database error when it isn't.

LOL! Please don't make me laugh! That's one of the worst I've ever seen. It didn't even make the Top 20 in remote hosts...

Try Aimoo, for a good paid remote host, or UpperBoard Host. They are the best remote hosts, IMO.

Sorry ikonboard fans. I have to agree with phrozen. Phpbb is the best.

I haven't seen a single phpBB board that actually FOOLED me into believing that it wasn't a phpBB board. Obviously, it's not very customizable and the layout sucks in the first place. I'm not a big fan of the board. Even Ikonboard is better.

Actually it is quite customizable. The entire forum can be edited through seom html templates. My forum is proof of that. It looks nothing like the default phpBB 2 theme.

If you mean this one:

It took only one look to figure out that it was a phpBB. The header, the style, everything...it still doesn't look very flexible.
