| | Having dabbed into a little bit of PHPBB and SMF, I tend to prefer SMF ... except that it's difficult to find many skins for the forums. PHPBB, on the other hand is easy to install and has a ton of skins available. |

I voted phpBB2 because it's simple from installation to posting and easy to design it's templates and more than that it's FREE

I personally think the ipb is the best because it has so many features and things to do on it compared to phpbb. Including the built in portal and fast reply where you would have to get a mod from phpbb.com for that. Vbulliten is just too expensive and mybb is making its way up there who knows where they will be at in a year

vbulletin is the best board it's the fastest and best looking there's also ways of getting it for free which I can't tell anyone ho to but, if you want a forum software which won't put you down I would use vbulletin  Phpbb isn't bad it's just you have to add so many mods to it like if you need sub-forums (which will happen when version 3.0.0 comes out) it's just a pain of a neck but, vbulletin can solve this problem so, the main scoop is that if you want something for free then get phpbb but, if you want something that is nice to use then get vbulletin but, mainly it's up to you
