When you use Freewebs you deserve it.

*coughwrongcough*

MyBB has basically everything except a good layout selection. (Even though Audentio does an extremely good job with it)

So yeah, I'm going to have to say MyBB out of sheer awe. o.o

SMF is so ugly. I just can't stand the look of it. ;-;

MyBB for me definitely.

Before I read your post, I was expecting something like this, especially coming from you. When you have any substantial ideas as to how your nose came to this conclusion, only then will you steer towards the opposite direction, current one being "you're wrong".

na.. smf has grown into a great platform, and is fully skinable. it has the power and features to challenge the best paid scripts out there.

I'm incredible sick of this kind of discussion but here goes. I support mybb its my favorite software if I had to pick another free software it would most likely be phpbb3 because I can mod it to my needs. Smf I just do not like I find it disorganized.

that is a stupid thing to say. MyBB 1.4 is much more secure especially since it was audited. Notice that when something is found it is fixed. Unlike phpbb and smf.

Non-webmaster related. Most targeted at the two muktiest games to ever have been crapped out of GameFreak: Diamond and Pearl.
ITT Paul mans up. I'm still interested in reading what you have to say, of course. You'll post up a link here, no?

Also, for anybody interested, SUIT is in private beta stages. If you want in, just PM me, or follow the link in my sig.

If I were to make a forum that was guaranteed to be successful and I was choosing a script to run it, I'd have to go with MyBB for free or IPB for paid.

Love to say phpBB3 just for the hell of it, sadly forum management just sucks on it. First time I used it I couldn't figure out why my effing boards wouldn't show up until I realized that the forum permissions are initially null so EVEN THE ADMIN CAN'T SEE THEIR BOARDS. Damn. Tha's sum stuup'd crap.

And I get so sick of seeing vBulletin ;p IPB just for the devil's advocate. Don't make me actually back my choice up with a rational reason.

BTW you guys should check the killer theme saul made for MMC. Really outdid himself. Just ironing a few kinks out when its viewed in Chrome.
