Invision Power Board

MyBB is great and easily extended and edited yes. But I can't really compare them sinc not used IPB myself.
 
IPB is a more professional bit of Forum software if your making a business.
MYBB can look professional, but the free bit makes you think differently.

I guess it depends what type of forum you want to run. BUt out of the way it works I think MYBB is better and IPB is more professional.
 
Well, if you really work hard on it MyBB could be made like IPB though it would take quite abit of coding.
 
I meant not just in looks but the way it works. The forum setting you would have to edit the actual code that MYBB is made from to do that.
 
Yeah this theme looks pretty good. I like those themes Justin S makes for MyBB they re real quality and are used across many MyBB forums.

The site is down due to money issues. you can find a forum powered by IPB by just googling powered by IPB and it should pull some up right away.

Yes Capital-Hosting has been closed due to the high amounts of money it has lost.

The ipb forum i still have in my possession is here http://gamingresponse.co.cc runed on a linux uk vps so fast :)

Thank you once again noreturn for your high contributation in capital-hosting i would be honoured if i can have you at gamingresponse as my mod :)

Hope to talk to you all soon.

Maybe if IPB lowered their prices and made it so you don't pay multiple times you pay a flat-fee charge and thats it they would bring in more customers like me and keep their old customers using it but charge like $50 per upgrade.
 
The new theme is classic
Very nice theme overall
Keep up

You pay for lisence which lasts forever but the support expires so you need to pay $25 per year to continue to get support and the latest versions.

So if I didn't want to keep the support it would just be a flat-rate fee?
 
I paid 1 year for it and it has run out the license still works but you dont get any support and your unable to download files from the client area. so i would backup them.

1 Year = $125 + 1 Year Support,

After expire = License stays active support and files become unavalible till you pay $25 for another 1 year
 
Hopefully all will be fine. I love MYBB. I am deeply about its research
 
I have all three major forum softwares, ipb, vbulletin and xenforo but i have to say ipb comes a close second after XenForo :) Im using it on a live forum and i find the controls very easy and its simple to modify.
