Help
This is really quite useless but I'm curious.
Which do you find better and why?
Invision Power Board
YabbSE
phpBB2
Just curious and I'm having a flamewar about it on IRC channel

It really doesn't matter to me - so long as I can register, post, and participate in group activities like I do on here, I'm fine.
Blaugh!

Well with invision you have alot more admin functions (for admin of course) but it's a bit more complex then the others.
YabbSE is EXTREMLY simple to use (On the admin side) yet hasn't got near as many functions as invision
phpb2 admin setup and functions are similiar to invision but simplier
I personnally use invision but has known to be supceptable (I suck @ spellin
)
to MySQL injections

You're an odd one...
Anyway, I prefer the ones that function well! Like Icon/invision power/etc and every other one too. but really the end user cannot really give you a decent or valid opinion on this, you would get better opinion with more weight behind it if you'd email board operators asking them to rate their board's systems with a 1-10 scale or something, cause asking this question ON a message board hosted on Invision, is just ASKING for bias.
Well that's just me.

Not really, just because you use the software doesn't mean you love/like it.
Look at windows
I despise it but I use it because some of the progs i use dont work on Linux/unix based OS's

I've personally had no problems with IPB, even though there is a risk of MySQL injection.

<@Tixus> Anyway, I set the year to 1988 for some reason.
<@Tixus> And set the microwave to run for a minute and 28 seconds.
<@Tixus> But it failed to send me back in time, and I was disappointed.
<Insidious> Tixus accidentally microwaved the 80s
<Insidious> that is my takeaway from this
