Also, MyBB is completely free, which makes it even better !
Xenforo, I have wanted to try but no money to purchase it
You can get second hand licenses of it pretty cheap.

MyBB is free for a reason...
IPB > All, no questions asked.
IPB has more hooks/add-ons, better looking skins, better developers, a MUCH bigger and better community, more customizable skins (along with it being easier).
The ACP and MCP are easier to use, and have more functions and tools for you to use, making things easier on everyone.
I could go on and on, but I'm too lazy to right now.

MyBB is crap.. The way it functions, is crap.. It's free for a reason.
IP.Board is so much better, MyBB fails so much they don't ever properly reset the CSS for page outputs. -.- IP.Board is a lot more secure, better looking, much more you can do with it, more/better add-ons and hooks, the developer community is just awesome, and easier to customize. Have you ever looked at default MyBB? It looks like poop.. Have you looked at the default Admin CP design for MyBB? It also looks like poop. But I have to say, MyBB is better than vBulletin.. I give them that. But IP.Board is so much better.

I personally like MyBB the best.
RE: Discussion Zone, IPB? - Banadmin - 08-07-2013
If I ever switch to another forum software (I never will), it would be XenForo for sure. Even though IPB is a nice software, I feel XenForo has the more professional look and feel to it.
RE: Discussion Zone, IPB? - ZillaBoom - 08-07-2013
I think it would be....shit, but that's just me, for me mybb is the best forum board platform out there.
RE: Discussion Zone, IPB? - Sin - 08-07-2013
Xenforo might be nice if you find the right skin & hooks to go with it.
I have never seen a properly setup community with Xenforo besides 7s.

I think the only problem with it is that it doesn't yet have enough plug-ins available. I'd imagine getting custom plug-ins made for it would cost Blue quite a bit of money.

Yeah, it would cost Blue a lot of money.
