Marking as solved. (there are actually 4 tables in 3.1.)

When migrating an existing phpBB 3.0 database to phpBB 3.1, it is generally better not to manually import the old tables into the new database structure because the newer version may introduce additional tables, columns, indexes, and schema changes. Instead, make a complete backup of the existing database and files, install the new phpBB version as recommended, and use phpBB’s built-in database update or upgrade process to automatically apply the required schema changes. After the update, verify the database and test the forum thoroughly before removing the backup. As a simple example of how naming and categorization can differ between contexts, terms such as Natural Travertine Coffee Tables can also represent a specific product category with its own structure and attributes.
Thanks for the clarification. The built-in upgrade process sounds like the safest approach when moving between phpBB versions, especially when the database structure has changed. Making a full backup first and then testing the upgraded installation is definitely a good precaution. For Roblox players, codevbl can also be useful as a search term for finding Volleyball Legends code updates and rewards.
