    Thinking of starting a forum and wanted to know what forum script would be better to buy:

    vBulletin vs. Invision Board

    Any suggestions?

    Simple Machine is best. I am using it in one of my thread. I have no idea about vBulletin. But I think if DP is using vBulletin then go for it.

    Hope u got my point of view.

    Cheers.

    Vbulletin by far!!! The mods are awesome!!! Service is pretty good too over on vbulletin.com and vbulletin.org.

    phpbb is getting better, but I still don't think it comes close to vbulletin.

    Invision Board has a hosted solution and also supported modules: blogs, gallery.

    Used phpbb before and hated to upgrade anything because it always messed up my mods. So I think a paid forum with support is the way to go now.

    Between those two, I'll say vBulletin is the obvious choice. Widely used, alot of addons and upgrades available.
