You have to pay for vBulletin. If this board were ever to change software, I would love it to change to SMF: Secure as nothing else, amazing features and completely free! [Without mentioning the amazing support and the good layout and feel of the forum itself]

I've used it for my union forum.
The user management, board management, everything was just great.
The original template looks a bit weird though, I gave up on tweaking it since I'm a programmer not an artist >_>

You can always go and look for a template on the resources of the official site, or at the many other sites that offer skins for SMF :)

Word is they are sticking with PHPBB since they just upgraded to 3.0. We might look at it again when VBulletin comes out with version 3.7 but what is not broken does not really need to be fixed.

Don't think SRF would be SRF without phpBB.
