Default vBulletin Appreciation Thread

First the idea was to post a tread titled: Why you have chosen vBulletin?
Although this is relevant question it is not what I really want to hear because I'm not looking for reasons why vB.
What I really want is to make vBulletin Appreciation Thread.
There is so much negativity recently about vBulletin that it made me think we need some positivity to balance this scale a bit.
All in all vBulletin (especially vB3 series) is absolutely AWESOME!

So, SAY SOMETHING NICE about vBulletin and skip comments about other forum scripts in this thread please!

vBulletin 3 Pros:

+ Most Advanced Forum Script Ever Made
+ Forum Script with Biggest Mods/Addons database Ever
+ Great Starting Point to build any kind of Forum/Portal site you may like
+ Excellent Base to create addons, modifications & themes
+ I'm not 100% sure but this might be also most widely skinned Forum script ever
+ Awesome (Proven) Scalability (There are vBulletin powered forums with millions of threads/posts and still working fast on ordinary server setups
+ Highly Customizable

I use vBulletin 4 and I absolutely love it. I've also used phpBB and IPB.

The more I've learned about vBulletin, the more I appreciate it - so customizable and dynamic. I never thought I'd be able to write my own mods for a forum to make it exactly how I imagined.

So my list:

- Easy to skin & make it look very professional / attractive

- Can integrate Facebook-esque mods that keep users engaged (Liking/Instant Notifications/Etc)

- The CMS works great (with some modifications)

- The whole plugin / template system is amazing. Updates don't break a thing.

- vBulletin.org is extremely helpful

- Our users seriously love the forum software. We get constant comments about how easy and intuitive it is

- Extremely secure / safe from spammers. Never been hacked. And after installing Spam-O-Matic, we have never had one spam registration.

- It's a really fun playground I'd be bored without it
