What's your favorite forum software?

Mine - vBulletin
Why? It's the most dynamic, has the nicest skins, and has the most mods. It also runs fast, not to mention I adore the AdminCP (don't ask why, I really don't know). Before that, I was an IPB freak, now I hate IPB ever since 2.2, 2.1.7 kicked butt though.

vB and IPB. I hate all others.

IPB is good, but proprietary and costs money.

phpBB2 I didn't like at all.

But it is my opinion that phpBB3 is the best board on the interwebz right now.

It is blazing fast.

The CODE itself is SO clean, I almost understand it all, which makes it good to do mods, and custom builds.

IPB has lots of useless shit, and lags a lot. but i would still pick it as a second choice, vBulletin being third.

Also phpBB3 = Open Source which pwnz anything else. This allows for extended support of skins, mods, etc.. (although phpBB3 is still new, so not many useful mods are out)

IPB ftw
vbulletin and phpBB are pretty decent as well.. all of the the ones are pretty much trash

I'm 50/50 on between vB & IPB....

1month i like vB then the next i like IPB, i can work better with IPB, but i find vB easier to mod ( less file edits ).

But most big forums i see are either phpbb or vB so that's gotta mean something i think.

[TippiE]

I voted phpbb because I know it very well

[Vovachka]

IPB for me.

[Agrias]

IPB all the way. using it at my forum too.

I've always been on forums that either used IPB or vBulletin and I've always liked those forums versus phpBB or SMF because the amount of extra things you can do with your profile. I've always felt phpBB was pretty limited on that fact since I like to customize a lot of the stuff on my profile and IPB and vBulletin allow a lot more options.
