Bulletin Board?
I am looking to get a new bulleting board. I like the look of vBulletin but have not installed SQL yet and do not need the speep increase it will give yet.
The other thing is that i am trying to keep price quite low. I do not like this "leaseing" of cgi scripts to be honests, it should be a buy once and that is it.
That is part of the reason I do not lile UBB and also the general lack of new features for it.
What do you think are my options. I am thinking of UB2K at the moment as it looks pretty fully featured but would quite like an open source one although nothing seems to have reached a generally acceptable level yet. What does everyone think?

Hmmm, well it looks like UB2K would be what you're looking for, but again, it's not open source yet. You might want to check out Yet Another Bulletin Board (www.yabb.com.ru), although it's only in it's early development.

In the end I have choosen to go with boardpower, it looks really good actually, is totally free, and seems to have a good community of modders!
