Which Forum Software Should I Use? - Please suggest me some scripts

I would say that no question, the answer is IPB. If you are willing to pay tongue.gif. Otherwise, phpBB is your best bet. I do not like SMF, I don't know why. I just don't. Anyway, IPB just has so many features. phpBB comes in a distant second.

Choose Quezza! The board is ontop of phpBB style just gives it alot more features and so on, It uses Ajax, Quick Reply, Fully costomisable, MySQL, PHP, supports other BBcode features, Atachment feature ready installed, also its free I installed it with no trouble yesterday, example - http://www.pencaderweb.co.uk/FFlash/

Obviously, if you are willing to pony up the cash (really the plastic, I didn't think you could pay for IPB with cash), get IPB. It's what's in use here. Obviously it's very powerful, hence its heftty price tag. If you don't have the money, go with SMF. As mentioned earlier in this thread, it's free, and has a strong community. It's also pretty easy to use.

It still hard to decide, with regards to free forum software, which one I would choose.

I like phpBB, except for the fact that it takes too long to install mods.
I also like SMF, but the skins are plain ugly...

With regards to paid software, i love vBulletin...sorry if you like IPB, but I guess im more looks orientated to solidarity...and i really dislike the look of IBP

http://www.invisionfree.com or http://www.invisionplus.net - The free versions of the IPBs. However the invisionfree domain has only a basic google search function (full forum search capability disabled), but redirect/mask domains to the invisionfree address which is usually s(number).invisionfree.com/forumname.

Invisionplus, not much difference to invisionfree, but some differences are that a subdomain is provided and full forum search capability is provided. However the reliability and speed may be questionable at times, but uptime is generally very good.

    forum and maybe one or two added on that match the style of the forum a little better, but what do
    you think? Should I have a dark/light added on, in addition to the default skins? and should I
    leave the forum default as one of the included skins? or something that fits in with my idea of what
    the forum looks like a little better? thanks for your opinions /smile.gif" style="vert....

    Is the PHP code convertable? (1)

    If you don't know, the RPGs have stats, classes, battling, shops, ect. I've seen it on many
    forums. I know that boards like InvisionFree abd PHPBB are great for this kind of thing, but I feel

    I made some adjustments without interfering with column widths, but now previews require horizontal
