IPB is the best imo. VB is the second best.
They're pretty close, but I don't like PHBB AT ALL.

It would be vbulletin if the layout was more like IPB's. But, since it has the layout that it has, IPB is better imo.

vBulletin pwnz IPB, seriously. There's much more you can do on vBulletin, and I think their layouts are sexy.

EDIT: Man, typos galore...

What ever you do, don't get vBulletin.

vBulletin's staff are incompetent and imbeciles. One time, there was a non-programmer who had tried to install vBulletin in his board, who was bombarded with technical jargon, both from staff and members, when he CLEARLY stated he had no experience with web programming.

vB is also big resource hog. Many hosts of banned vBulletin because of its badly programmed way of using cron, mySQL, and such.

If you want a successful community, vBulletin is a big no no. Go with IPB, which is much better.
