IF. For free vs. 85$ a month for IPB, IF is a killer.

Ah, but he didn't ask us which we would prefer to use, just which is better. I personally wouldn't be bothered paying for one, but they are better ;)

You're good at posting useless information :wub:

IPB Prices
 
Yearly license  $69.95
Perpetual license  $185.00
Forum+Hosting        Starting from $10/month


With IPB you can do alot, having access to the source files instantly makes it alot better. "But you need to pay for hosting", that's why you put ads on your forum, just like IF does, but you get all the profit from the ads :stupid:

If you've got a decent forum IPB>IF.... If you've got a forum that is hardly used because you don't promote it properly etc, then IF>IPB

IPB has plenty more features than IF, but personally I dont think its worth buying a forum so I prefer to use IF.

I would probaly prefer ipb more if it was more user friendly, i found it impossible to navigate around the admin cp. So currently i prefer IF.

Sorry. I meant 69$/year.

And Oblivion, chill buddy. No need to patronize people. I was under the impression that it was 85$/year. Type w/ the month. Seems it is actually 69$/month. Just watch next time you post crap.

True that is, but it's not like I posted it on purpose. :ermm:

I was under the misconception that it was 85$/year (the month thing was a typo, sorry). But, no need for you to patronize poeple. And I've seen you do this to other people too. A bit over the edge for an Elite Member, wouldn't you say? :S

I never said you posting the right prices was wrong. I said your patronizing attitude was wrong....:X
