For the 50 million and tenth time Grrr...

YaBB exists longer than iB, actually Matt Mecham was in the YaBB team before he started iB.

And second, no there is no "major bug" in YaBB. All that there have been gone for ages.

And quit those comparisons, nobody needs them, some like YaBB better some like iB better. So be it.

hehe. Don't worry. I just wonder, do you still like the threads about which board is better? Even after the twentieth time? If I'd be a moderator I'd lock them and point them to on of the others. Or even make such a topic sticky. This is getting really annoying IMO

Solution: If you see a topic like this, stay away, and you wont get annoyed. I think that will help, Mr. YaBB. BTW: Are you ever going to fix the coding to LR? Its awefully messy and never works when i set it up.

No, it's unsupported software, there are no plans on working on it.

yeah, iB::3 beta is out, of course it has some bugs, but it's useable as a main forum.

Both are Perl ... I know Ikonboard might come out with a PHP/MySQL verison after the final of iBv3 comes out.

Sorry for the late reply (long time no visit ;)), but kB is not in any way a php version of YaBB. Not at all really, it has been written from scratch without taking any code from any other board.
