***I strongly recommend reading the directions in this posting, or at the very least everything highlighted in BOLD.*** I'm glad to announce the launch of the new & final iteration of PB: PhalloBoards 3.0! Ironically, this site's greatest strength became it's greatest flaw: the sheer abundance in rich content also became overwhelming and disorganized. I took for granted what it was like to be a new reader for the first time, and the kind of intimidation a decade worth of content could be to a newcomer. The goal in 2020 is that every new visitor will have access to a glossary and basic overview of all the popular methods available today in one comprehensive post before delving deeper into their research. It's not meant to tell them what to get done or who to see, but rather, how to digest the information on this site without getting lost, confused, or discouraged.
This is a soft-launch. Most core functionality is working but there are some minor hiccups and glitches that I'm working on and will continue to work on with the support of forum Members and forum Sponsors. Unlike the last two iterations of PhalloBoards, this one is being built from the bottom-up giving me 100% creative and administrative control. The message board will work very much the way it does here, so if you're used to PB 2.0, the learning curve wont be so bad.
I will be locking ALL-BUT the General Discussion category and the Patient Support Group category. Members can continue replying to threads in those two categories until the end of the year. Please compose all new topics on the new forum. PhalloBoards 3.0 will pick up where PhalloBoards 2.0 left off, just the same way PhalloBoards 2.0 picked up where PhalloBoards 1.0 left off in 2011.
Logging In:- If you made an account here prior to the early Summer of 2019 (sorry I do not have an exact date but likely June or July), a duplicate of your account was transferred over to the new site. Due to password encryption, your current password will not work. In order to sign in, you'll need to use the "password reset" function. If you no longer use the email associated with your account -OR- you do not receive a password reset email within 15 minutes (and you've checked your spam folder), please PM here so that I can manually reset your password.
- If you have made an account after August 2019, you'll likely have to re-register a new account. I recommend using the same username you use here now.
Functional but still requires future work:
- Private messages are working but the layout is barebone and will receive a major overhaul in the coming weeks, so pardon its current appearance.
- Some posts have strange formatting issues on mobile. You can still read it but this will be resolved in the near future.
- Avatar photos may not always crop correctly into your profile, not a big deal at the present moment and will be resolved in the near future.
Feel free to PM me any bugs or glitches along the way as I'm sure there will be some minor things that fall through the cracks. It may have a bumpy start but I assure you it wont be long till it's a well-oiled machine. PhalloBoards 3.0 will represent the most comprehensive and credible PE source on the web.
Look forward to seeing you all there!

p.s.
If you're paid membership is active when the site becomes locked, it'll simply convert into a PB 2.0 lifetime membership, which I think is very fair. Those who were given or purchased a Lifetime membership here WILL get Lifetime membership on PB 3.0 as promised, but you'll need to private message me so that I can have it enabled for you. This too I think is very fair.
Premium Memberships will work on the new site the same way they do here, but much more automated. All the readable content will remain free, including the Doctor's section.
