    I would never go to IPB, we get forums that are on ipb all the time and everyone is imported to vb ;)
    I don't think we even try to sell the ipb scripts..lol

    I've seen the vice versa, where people are leaving vB for an IPB.

    I believe that SMF is the best forum software. Security is unmatched by any other forum softwares out there.

    vBulletin as better security, and spam control.

    180 dollars is actually not that much for a good quality forum if it has everything. But the problem is you have to pay for the SEO package and don't you ahve to pay for a blogging and picture packages other kinds too?

    Personally you have to have a really big site for it to be worth even the base 180.

    It does have everything.

    A blog and SEO MOD is not needed, they are extras. Blogs usually a seperate software like Wordpress. Also the SEO mod is optional and from another company.

    yeah but you can't integrate wordpress into vbulletin for members. Also they picture galleries you can integrate, but i think those are 3rd party apps.

    I think its a fair price. Only $20 more for the forum software. Indeed, they are leading most competition!

    I would happily pay that.. i used to have an IPB license, it was just a pain to customize it to how you wanted.. with modifications needing about X-XX php file edits, then the template edits, then the database edits etc etc.. vB - Upload done.
