I don't know if you people have ever heard of this, but their is an extremely cool, free BB system that is out called MyBB. (http://www.mybboard.com/)
It's a really good system. This (http://www.msghelp.net/index.php) site uses it and it has 60634 registered members on it, so it's reliable. I'd give it a try. :)
I'm quite satisfied with SMF, and I plan to use SMF forever, unless something really horrible happens to it :)
Yeah, well SMF (http://www.simplemachines.org) is really stable and has a community of 64,659 (http://www.simplemachines.org/community/) members!
I wasn't recommending a change, I <3 SMF too.
I'm just recommending MyBB for an option if somebody needed a free BB.
Yeah, I didn't think you were asking for a change, that would be impossible at this point. But even for new BB's, I'd still recommend SMF to people. I couldn't see MyBB being better than it.
I try to use SMF anywhere I can, everything is so easy to do and stuffs. :)
This topic isn't "SMF" it's "MyBB"
If you want to discuss how great SMF is go create an SMF topic. MyBB looks nice.

Regardless, SMF is a totally valid subject to discuss.

Just change the "Subject" line of your response to "SMF", then it's fair game.
But yeah, SMF and MyBB fill in the same niche, and are basically competitors with each other. When making a choice to use MyBB, one should also examine alternatives before coming to a conclusion which one to pick. So in a thread about one, bringing up another, especially one considered by most to be better, is perfectly valid, I think.

No, it's fine to dicuss it here.
This is almost as dumb as the argument over how long a pregnancy period is.
Yeah. Waffles rock.
IPB I think is the best out there. You can get a open source IPB 1.3 for free from http://www.invisionfree.com
I've been active on a few forums that use IPB, but I think I like SMF more.
I really don't like IPB. I don't know what's wrong with it, though... I think it's because the free forums they host with their software are full of everything that's wrong with the internet.
SMF is by far my favorite. YaBB works, I guess, and vBulletin is pretty. PunBB and IPB just anger me.

I don't see any remark here that implies that...
I wasn't suggesting anyone did ;)
You can build a community with MySpace, but that doesn't make it a good thing! :)
