I currently use ubb 5.47
If I switch to phpBB v2 can I expect:
-less hard drive storage requirements?
-less bandwidth requirements?
-less impact on the server cpu?
Thank you

berog,
Absolutely. We've converted many a UBB to the free phpBB system with nothing but good results. Forums run faster, implementation of mod_gzip makes bandwidth use lower, and mySQL runs way faster than any flat-file based forum.
Sincerely,

... doesn't use (My)SQL but a lot of text files making it a backup nightmare and very slow naturally... what else to say?
