Each time I need to evaluate any program, I base it on the needs of *that* site, not anyone elses.

I like this. Naturally my wish would be that everyone uses UBB.threads , but to face reality nothing is suitable for everybody. Everyone has different needs and tastes so they should use what works best for them. It's not like Vbulletin and UBB.threads are the only forum packages out there. Just a quick glance at hotscripts.com shows 110 discussion forum packages and surely there are more.

The big thing is everybody likes to fight for something. Microsoft vs. Linux, Netscape vs. IE. In the end it just boils down to what you are comfortable with. You tell the potential customer about your stuff and then let them go look for themselves at the others. I get asked all the time about VBulletin and others. The only thing I know is second hand stuff and I have no idea if it's true or not so I just tell them that I don't know.
