Anybody used " Simple Machines " forum software before?
 

Any bugs or complaints? Looks BAD ASS! Sure beats PHPbb I've been using...

Beats phpbb for sure but I love VBulletin.

I have not used it personaly sorry, but i have seen some decent sized porn forums running it.

I've used it and it's ok software.

it is good if you don;t want to invest in vbulletin....

Have used simple machines on a number of forums.

I like it because it's free and end up converting to VB if the forum makes enough to pay for it. The admin is simple and a little lacking IMO, but it is a very good free script.

i have just started to use it, but i couldn't find how to switch it to an other theme/template/looking, Do You know How to change it's themes?

it's default theme is not good for an Adult Forum in my opinion, so i would like to change it, but even though i found how to edit themes, i couldn't find how to switch an other theme from Admin Area...

Its a good script, better for SEO than PhPBB. But usability and security is better in the new PhPbb v3, so im sticking with PhPBB.

IF the site becomes large, you can always convert it to VB, or invest a little $$ to get a designer/programmer to clean up your PhPbb.

VB get attacked by spambots as much as PhPbb anyway.

phpbb sucks when it comes to stopping spam.

it looks cool, I dig it.
