Default vBulletin vs. OpenBB vs. The Whole World

So I found yesterday a nice board called OpenBB(.com) which looks like vbulletin in some manner. I'm even thinking of using it, because it has less options (all of that stuff, which is in vb), but it still needs to be modified. At least the default design is 100 times better than that of vB.

So come on share, what do you thik about other forums - is vb the king or not?!

Your sortof right although not fully. Lol. Yes, we are still developing on the current base of OpenBB but myself and Pete Hall are working on OBB2. The next big thing to hit free Bulletin Boards.

Are you saying that my freelancing time and skills mean nothing?

Either way no free product can compete with a paid one. I like phpBB, the installation is much simpler than vB, but from what I've heard it scales horribly and the template editing is not as easy.
