no problem

Nice information there mate - IPB is the most expensive isnt it? But apparently its one of the best out of the Forum Packages

[webwizzy]

vBulletin and IPB are undoubtedly the best forum softwares I had seen so far. However, I prefer vB due to many reasons that includes pricing and fee, support, mods etc.

The standard license of IPB is cheaper if compared to vBulletin package with a renewal fee of just 25$ BUT has just 6 months of support/upgrades. The business license is way too expensive costing 300$ with a renewal fee of 50$.

Nice Post mate IP.Board is for sure in the top forum hosts

After using IPB and vBulletin i really dont think i could ever use IPB willingly again.

[justin]

For me it will always be vBulletin. I have tried IPB but In my eyes it just doesn't compare to vBulletin.

[iBlake]

Gosh..... I did own an IPB but it ******* messed up due to IPB saying my license was out of date and I bought it 4 months ago. So I am saving for a vB.

I rate Invision Power Board as the top forum software. The user friendliness and also the design and profile look are big features. Thanks for that info!
