is it good [now] to use olympus ?
(by good I mean safe and not very buggy)
phpBB: has no truck with the notion of 'CSS' or 'web standards' at all (XHTML? huh? what happened to <font>?)
Vbulletin all the way, Its more reliable and securer than IPB
In my opinion, phpBB is way more buggy than any other forum I ever used
you have to install a thousand mods to have it work the way you want it too, I don't like it, it just feels bloated :S
I reckon out of the open-source forums, the best by far is MyBB, it's easy to work with, administrate, use, code for, it's all round well written, that's because they have 5 writers ( or something ), all thinking the same way, but phpBB, they have 100's of developers that all wanna get thier ideas in in every single release, hence the bloatedness.
The thing is, if it's open source can't people work exploits in easier?
Plus phpBB has none of the advanced features of VB or IPB, most of all things like RSS and FastReply.
