But as time goes by, even though I have never used (or tested the demo) each of these two but through being a member of a lot of different places use vBulletin and IPB, I was really amazed by vBulletin's features and speed  And the upcoming version of vBulletin (It is 3.7 , right ?) is going to beat all of its competitors due to the wide range of social-like features. I voted for vBulletin, the only board worths considering spending time and money |
