My vote goes to phpbb 2 rc-2. By the way vbb and wbb have some small bugs.

I've never been able to test openbb because I had installation problems.

OpenBB seems to lack several features although it is nice.

"WOW!! holy batcrap!! I checked my bandwidth with YaBB SE and its over 2 days 338 mb. When I had YaBB gold it was close to a GIG a day. this is incredible!

Um... last time I checked, 338 megs a day is still a crapload for a message board . And I dont really like reviews that say "holy batcrap!" and then have 4 exclamation marks.

I think I'll be sticking with phpBB2.

 

[omario]

try the forum first

believe me - one try and u'll piss on phpbb 2
