    Who? Invision released Zetaboards, people just migrated to that. I hated Zetaboards.

    phpBB. Clean, consistent, and very well written. I love the forum, the team that works on it, and how easy it is to develop the forum.

    Paid: Xenforo or IPB. Free is MyBB. Sometimes, I even prefer MyBB over paid though.

    My favourite would have to be vBulletin, but MyBB is a close second.

    Not trying to be mean or anything, but the plural of software is software, not softwares (likewise, Deer and Pok?mon fall in that same category).

    I don't really have a preference (though to be fair, I don't really think I need an IPB forum anymore), but as long as it isn't a slow vBulletin 4 forum, I'm good.

    MyBB is my favorite forum software. Why? Because it's free, open source and there are lots of themes and plugins.

    I have to agree, this is the first XenForo forum I visit and I'm really impressed with its features.
