"One and a half years ago FreeForums.org was forged with a mission to revolutionize the forum hosting industry. Since then, we've accomplished just that. Now with our ever increasing userbase and strong community of customers such as yourself, we plan to roll out our phpBB3 platform with even more excitement.

With that I'm pleased to present you with the release date for our phpBB3 platform:

July 7th 2008 - 5:00 PM PST

Given the size of FreeForums.org this is truly a monstrous project, and has taken a full time team months to prepare. We will be working extraordinarily hard over the next few weeks to make sure all the last bugs are fixed, the network is strengthen, and we have the right people in the right places for the launch.

I would also like to note that the initial launch will include the core features we have in our beta version now, as well as some other required features. The truly groundbreaking features as far as user experience and functionality will be launched shortly after. "

This means we will most likely be in for a forum-change surprise. From what I know, our forum theme, style, and portal will change. Although this seems its all for the best, we must expect a change in events. Stay tuned for more upcoming info!
