    I just want to know what the best forum software to use to use,
    it been about 2 year since I made a forum so I need some advice,

    I know most people would say vBulletin but $200 - $300 is a bit much

    Im looking to integrate it with joomla, should I use 1 of these or a forum software made for joomla ?

    im hoping the site would grow fast so i need a good option

    and i would hold on on buying a license from Xenforo since its being sued by the company that created vbulletin so i would hold on at least to see the outcome

    1. Internet Brands are only envious that XenForo will get more sales then them, as it's clearly better.
    2. People have already bought licenses anyway so I doubt IB will succeed.

    ot: MyBB/XenForo.
