Default Question about Integration/Code Support

Hello,

I have an ExpressionEngine blog that I wish to integrate somewhat with a forum software so that users do not have to register twice. It's not an in-depth integration, just needs to keep the member information in sync with each other. I succeeded in writing up something that suited my needs with phpBB2, but soon after, they decided to release phpBB3.

Since I'm basically back at square one with phpBB3 as I'm unfamiliar with it, I went back and took another look at my forum options (IPB, vB and phpBB.) I decided IPB did not suit my needs, so in the end it's down to vB and phpBB again. phpBB is attractive because it is free and code can be freely posted. However, vB is not free so there are restrictions with posting code snippets. While the phpBB support community is able to comment on the inner workings of their code, vB support insists that it is not officially supported, but does recommend this site.

So, to decide whether I should go with vB or phpBB, I'm wondering if this forum may be able to help me with doing something like this. Can I post snippets of vB code and ask for where/how things are/work? I'd like to lean toward vB but it would be somewhat pointless if I can't get it to do what I want it to.

Thanks in advance!
