Root [Boost Mobile] Should I use custom ROM?

[tnsmileychick]

I just upgraded from galaxy s2 to an s3 and I absolutely love the new phone. So much faster than my old phone and the battery life is 10 times better.
I put more custom ROM's than I care to count on my old s2, but I'm thinking about keeping stock on this one, at least for now. At the moment I'm enjoying some of the different features that are new to me, such as S-beam and NFC. Will I lose these if I install new ROM? Do most of y'all run a custom ROM on your S3? I'm rooted and running Phil's recovery, which I love by the way.
Any tips for me?
Thanks in advance.

I only run a custom ROM if it gives me something the stock ROM doesn't (and doesn't take something away that I need). I've never run a custom ROM just for the sake of running a custom ROM. (The one I'm currently running is MUCH faster than stock, and a little better on battery, which is why I'm running it.)

I just love the way I can use a custom rom to take control of my phone and make it all me. I love some of the features of the S3 stock, so I think I'm going to try out Wicked X since it's a touchwiz rom. I want to keep some stuff that comes on stock. What rom are you currently running, if I may ask?

Wicked-X is an awesome ROM and I recommend it. It has all kinds of mods for it. 2 or 3 themes too. The PCB theme is my favorite.
