I'm tired of the limited functions of SMF so I consider a software change the best. Please suggest which board software you think is the best and why. I personally know of phpBB (free) and vBulletin (which is great, but it costs).

Note that there should be a way to transfer forum posts and such to the new software.

I've only ever used this and phpBB, but I found a couple sites that might help make the decision. https://www.forum-software.org/forum-reviews?sort=best-rated and https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_Internet_forum_software_%28PHP%29#Fe atures can hopefully provide some comparison for everyone to chose from :D

Personally, if we're going to use a free one, I'll vote for phpBB, there's a reason it's the most used free forum software. If donations or otherwise can support buying the software, the obvious choice for me is vBulliten.

I vote for phpBB enough reasons. :)
