Which is a good forum script.. i know vbulletin is the best but i dont want to pay..
which is a good free forum script and also easy to use..
i know phpbb shall i go for it or IPB
please give ur comments and experience
But paid IPB is better than free IPB.I have tried the free one.
vBulletin or IPB not free would be my first choice =)
Well MYBB board is alternative of the Vbulletin. But a little lesser support. But I think some day it will cross Vbulletin because its free. And I personally like things which are free. As we are giving free domains & hosting. PHPBB is also an good option and especially its new version is about to be launched soon...
SMF is also an other good option to use. Some good premade skins are available.
Has anyone used MercuryBoard lately?
I remember I cursed the day I installed in on my server

It was soooo full of bugs and easy target for hackers.
Yet, it was at the beginning. They probably fixed that in newer versions.
vBulletin best for paid if free smf is good or phpbb as well
phpBB3 is still in BETA, but it has nice features.
Can't wait for RC1 to be published.
SMF is a highly optimized free PHP and MySQL based piece of forum software.
-Opensource
-Easly integratable with Joomla ! or wordpress
-many themes
-many plugIns
-More support
I prefer SMF

i like vBulletin a lot but must to paid for it that's expansive
phpbb is great, add some mods and its got everything vb has but free lol.
