    forums - phpbb or vbulletin? discuss.

    I'm onpening a forum,. because there aren't enough on the internet at the moment. So, which is better and why? I hear vbulletin is easier to change the layout, but phpbb has more features.

              SIG TOO SMALL! Maximum 1200x600 button and no more than 30 text lines of ALL SIZES and COLORS. Unless your sig is for a GFY top banner sponsor, then you may use a 6240x4800 instead of a 1024x800.

                I would use vbulletin. It has for more features, support, add ons and other... its far more powerful as far as user management, etc.

                I only use phpbb for small private forums and other apps...

                  It's just the opposite, vbulletin has more features, and it's easier to change layout in phpbb...

                        If the forum is suposed to be very big (when it comes to number of online users, members lists and posts) and I mean very big VBB is the way to go, else go with phpBB.
