We need to "upgrade" our forum software here. UBB is causing too many problems -- it is pretty poorly written and does not perform well. Which would you like to see here, Ikonboard or vBulletin. http://www.ikonboard.com http://www.vbulletin.com

Do you have examples of these boards? Plus, will we have to re-register? (the post whores aren't gonna like that!  )

I have not been on any boards that use Ikonboard I do not think, but I do not really like vBulletin. The search feature sucks and every board I've used it on takes it down during peak tiems because it's really slow for the whole system.

I say Vbulletin. Ikonboard is slow. Glad to see that we are moving up.

vBulletin! Remember Tim agreed to pay the yearly upkeep fee! [22:56] vbulletin is very nice, costs money every year, and only uses mysql, not postgresql
[22:57] $160 for owned license
[22:57] I'll donate some after SZ
[22:57] only costs $30 if you want access to the member's area (to update the shizzle)
[22:57] but $30 a year after that if you want access to new versions
[22:57] Whats $30.00
[22:57] *** _matt278 has joined #contique
[22:57] I'll pay that yearly
[22:57] ok... ;-)
[22:57] Seriously, I will
Dang ole names don't show up! Oh well, I'm not changing the brackets.

Not too big of a fan of the boards like IconBoard as the sites i've seen using them only allow 10 posts per page which means you have to scroll forever if the thread gets long. Went to the vbulletin page and it looks decent so I'd rather go with that. For some reason I had it in my head that UBB was better than those.
