    If for whatever reason you couldn't or no longer wanted to use your current script, what would be the next best thing to you? Include what you do use now in your post. I'm curious.


    If I wasn't using vBulletin it would be a tough call between MyBB and IP.Board.

    If I was not using vBulletin it would be IPB for paid or MyBB for free.

    Much the same for me, I'm leaning towards MyBB if I have to move though due to its delightfully surprising awesomeness.

    If all of my vB licenses were suddenly taken away, I'd probably try IPB.

    But which one would you pick? You'd need to have only one, regardless of it being free or paid.

    If vB disappeared, I'd definitely be switching to IPB.

    If vBulletin were to (for some reason) disappear off the face of the earth, I'd naturally go with IP.Board - hell, I already use it.

    IPB Board for sure. It was a big toss up between a vB or a IPB. I decided finally on vB as there were many mods I liked better for it.
