Least Favorite Forum Software

[Death]

Mine would be PunBB because I don't care for the way it looks and there aren't too many people that choose that software. I'm also not a fan of Simple Machines. I used to like the way it was designed, but now I don't think too much of it.

I agree that PunBB isn't very good, same with Vanilla. vBulletin was good for a while, the versions before v4.0 that is.

My least favorite would be Zetaboards. Just don't care for the looks of this software.

Proboards. That's not a customizable one.

I really dislike SMF. They totally wrecked YaBB.

That said, vBulletin has also turned into a complete pile of crap. 3.8 was the last decent version.

I guess it's a toss-up for me.

Especially the new version. I dislike the external registration / login screen they have.

PunBB is good for what it does. It's a simple to use forum software and many people who use it usually just change the theme/style of it and don't really want extra features added.

For me, I'd say SMF is my least favorite. It's horrible to look at and can be difficult to use at times.

phpBB worst thing in the history of ever. XMB is pretty woeful too.

 

[Darth-Apple]

vBulletin for me.

I actually didn't mind SMF, although a real plugin system and template/theme engine would have been very nice for sure. PunBB is good for what it's for, but it's far too simplistic for my needs.

I'm using MyBB right now, and love it. I'm working at potentially upgrading to IPB in the future, and am looking forward to it.

vBulletin 3 was awesome, but I never cared for vBulletin 4 and I noticed that not many forums use that software anymore.

 

[Nebulous's iconNebulous]

This forum was on both vBulletin and phpBB in the past (both mentioned in this thread), we seem to have found our home on MyBB and nobody seems to dislike the software.

 

[Darth-Apple]

It's vBulletin 5 that's gotten on my nerves. Oh, what a mess...

Yuku because it's an ugly, unusable piece of [curse], and it keeps buying out forum software so whenever I try and dig up some old forums they've gotten their dirty paws all over them.
