Convert My Proboards To phpBB Please

[tunescool]

im want to move my site to phpbb but would like to ask some questions first.

1. how long does it take, and there cannot be any posting during the conversion?

2. all posts will be transferred?

3. do i need to create the exact forums and sub boards on phpbb beforehand?

4. i use a mac, does this matter?

5. please point out anything important i mite want or need to know

Once you've converted, they can't really do anything, though.

The converter is still somewhere. It's in one of my computers, but the guest is sleeping =/.

To be fair, just PM nneonneo and I'm sure he'd still do it. He just has to act like he doesn't want to convert things anymore 😛.
