What forum software do you like?

I'm really confused.... I had vB on forum.bizari.com for a while, but then they told me I had an illegal version, and then they said they were wrong, basically going back and forth until I had converted 37 times just to learn that it was legal the whole time. I just don't want the trouble with vB anymore so I'm looking for a new forum software. Whats the best ones that you guys have tried?
 
Well, that's the kind of stuff you get from buying a used vB license. There are absolutely no problems if you buy a brand new one directly from Jelsoft. And it is the best forum software.

phpbb is an outdted piece of crap.

yeah, I am seeing a whole lot less phpBB boards now.. IPB seems to be becoming the standard now. Of course, a lot of sites are using the (better) less-known boards as well.
 
I was a IPB user for a long time (actually since Matt was on Ikonboard, then started IPB). I decided to switch to vB when IPB went pay. I'm regretting it. I wish I stayed with IPB. Anyone out there with a IPB license want to trade? lol

The only problem I've noticed lately (since it went pay) with IPB is weaker skinning community.

phpBB3 is almost like Longhorn in terms of delays

They taking out a big feature whenever they announce something about it too?

Personally, XMB was my favourite - but I haven't seen any updates for it in a long time, but I haven't exactly been following it.
 
I have tried all & all are gud ...phpbb,ipb1.3 & smf BUT i suggest if you don't wana buy license go for IPB2.0(trial) It was a special version with no limitation & 100% legal! (& u can convert other forums to ipb2.0 very easily!)
 
I really like IPB the best. All the vB boards I visit seem to be slow and sluggish a lot of the time
