There isn't a set thing that SA-MP servers use. Some don't use either.

Its the owner's right to choose.

Because Minecraft server owners are actually smart and recognize vBulletin for how crappy it has become.

The reason is that SAMP IS old... vBulletin was the most popular forum software at the time when SAMP was founded.
Those new modern flat forum software's didn't even exist..
And also changing the forums would be a very very bad thing to do, The forums is really very rich with useful information and shouldn't be ever deleted.
On the other hand, vBulletin v5 is really amazing too.. I don't know why the forums is never upgraded.

This one is cheap and it works well for what we need. Simple as that.

If you ask me MyBB is one of the finest out there,it has many built in features and it looks great if you work around it a bit.
