Best Forum Software [Free]

Whats the best forum software in your opinion and why? There are a bunch of new, unique, BB software coming out, and they are looking promising.

I find that if you mod phpbb very good, its pretty good, but without moding, I would use xmg (google it), as its powerful, fast, and there are a lot of pretty neat skins =), and its very easy to make your own.

is there a nice modded phpbb available with Cash Mod already? It looks fun and I'm sure people will like it more if they give or receive forum cash

reckon there is much of a demand for the cash mod installed into phpBB?

im busy installing all the mods i am going to install into my boards, and was gonna put this one as optional, but if you think there is a large demand, ill just install it..

My favorite forum software is PHPBB. It allows full customization and has all the features I need.

I think so, yes because in the forums I've been to, the Cash mod has been used extensively for trading everything from signature design services to earlier IPB forum installations! Plus, in a forum with a lot of members offering a lot of stuff for forum cash, it'll motivate the members to post more (posting means forum cash, lol) and increase forum activity!

I tried to install this weeks ago into my forum but guess what? I broke it 3 times. *superangry smiley here*

vBulletin is always been my favourite since customizing its templates is really fun for me.phpBB is really simple and its templates can be customized easily too.
