THere's a big chance that I will move our site to a new server next month (May). As you guys saw, this server was down for so many times.
AFter I move all the stuff, I will also get a new forum for us. Which one is good? SMF ? VBullettin?
ALso, please recommend a good host under 10 bucks a month.
Not sure about the host...never had a site hosted for me before.
I prefer (in order):
#1 - Vbulletin
#2- Invision Board ( http://invisionboard.com/ )
godaddy hosting isn't bad. they provide a lot of tools and shit for your convenience. I use them to host www.w3rd-online.com
I can't remember the deal I got but it's like 3 bucks a month hosting if you buy a domain for 8 bucks or whatever it is.
I've used Forgehosting in the past and have had great luck with them for stability and support, fairly cheap and off free domain regs with accounts. Or u can relink the current domain to their ns servers.

I can just transfer database from PHPBB
Thanks phlux, ill look into it..
SMF is by far the best free forum software. In my opinion, it's better than IPB which is like $60...
Plus, I know SMF like the back of my hand! I can skin SMF! SMF also makes everything quicker and easier to do. Here are a couple examples...
Steps to Install a New Skin:
1. Download the skin zip file.
2. Upload/install via the admin panel.
3. Enjoy your new skin.
Steps to Install a New Mod/Hack:
1. Download the mod zip file.
2. Upload/install via the admin panel.
3. Enjoy your new mod!
There is no need to edit anything! And with 2.0 it will edit EVERY theme when you add a new mod! (It currently only edits the default theme :()
As for hosting, DO NOT GET GODADDY!

Lol yeah I know what it is.. I just thought the term "420 ownage" to be weird.
Keep it on topic, I think new forum type would be cool.
