vBulletin or SMF? - Camacorn - 21.09.2010

I have recently converted my forums from SMF to vBulletin 3.8.5.

I wanted to know what you guys prefer?

What i like about vBulletin:
Extra features.
Added security.
Extra User Friendly.
Better setup.

What i like about SMF:
Its easier to install.
Easier to add themes.
Easier to add mods.

I favor vBulletin.

Please Do Not Post Comments That Cause Flaming!

SMF and Vb are the same installation. both of them are easy

VB:Bigger Communities like SAMP

SMF:Small Communities like I dont know.... Like a server that just started


Re: vBulletin or SMF? - Basicz - 21.09.2010

I like both of them.
It's easy at installing.


Re: vBulletin or SMF? - Mark_Weston - 21.09.2010

vb is just more installation process that it.
But I dont suggest to buy it if you dont have a good ( big ) community, youll just waste money


Re: vBulletin or SMF? - Camacorn - 21.09.2010

I think its better for communities that arent just based on servers (( mine )) but yeah, for just servers, do SMF.
I do like the extra little features here and there of VB though.

Both, Vb have a good stuff and like big Communities and SMF is a great option to big Communities but have a irregular fails of security.

vBulletin is great for large communities, and if you want a software with tons of features and security.

SMF is more of a smaller community type of software. It's security is not the best, but with intense care, you can keep your forum safe.


Re: vBulletin or SMF? - ♣RОЗK♣ - 21.09.2010

Both of them are pretty much the same to me


Re: vBulletin or SMF? - Grim_ - 21.09.2010

SMF is easier to install and doesn't come with a ton of crappy restrictions (signature lengths, message lengths, time waiting between posts, etc.)

Thats just to keep people from spamming, having HUGE signatures, and large random spam paragraphs.

Though, its fairly not hard to edit.


Re: vBulletin or SMF? - Grim_ - 21.09.2010

Yes, but the limits are so little it's ridiculous. And if it's so easy, people should fix it when obviously no one likes it *cough*.

Is this ironic, or...
This forum requires that you wait 120 seconds between posts. Please try again in 26 seconds.

Not true at all.

None of the restrictions are there by default, the SAMP forum admins put those there themselfs, as on mine i have no length in between posts etc...

Though i did enable the 10 charactor minimum, but im lowering it to 4
