[ShockWave] Posted August 20, 2015 Share Posted August 20, 2015 (edited) As for PBBoard, I'll definitely be looking into it and let you know what I think of it, as a whole. ;) Edited August 20, 2015 by [ShockWave] 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Unconnect Posted August 20, 2015 Share Posted August 20, 2015 Too bad they're not using English language on the forums. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stake™ Posted August 20, 2015 Share Posted August 20, 2015 I've seen some screenshots and short video's about PB Board, but I prefer IP.Board above all forum software. Might be, because I were always using IP.Board.I like the style, but I want to see some more options. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DragonVoid Posted August 20, 2015 Share Posted August 20, 2015 I don't like it. To me it seems like a knockoff version of IPB. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nervodx Posted August 23, 2015 Share Posted August 23, 2015 Considering they use SourceForge, already not a fan.SourceForge is injecting adware and malware with their installers, and they have begun taking over old accounts (the GIMP distributors, for example) to use as further distributors of malware. Not to mention the general sketchiness of a download site with dozens of fake buttons in the ads.But it's rather like looking at IPB 2.x to be honest. It's ugly and IPB seems to have many more features. But if you're looking for something free I suppose that is the way to go. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's ugly and IPB seems to have many more features. But if you're looking for something free I suppose that is the way to go.Just searching for SourceForge alone brings this up already. How ironic. On-topic though:I'm not a fan of this. It looks outdated and very amateur looking. Don't even get me started on the mobile style. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DragonVoid Posted August 23, 2015 Share Posted August 23, 2015 I looked some more into it and it reminds me of IPB 3.1.2.. I'm sure they will develop to a better look as IPB has. Although with IPB 4.x I think they are going towards vBulletin's look. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Prof. Connor Manheim Posted August 24, 2015 Share Posted August 24, 2015 Definitely a knock off IPB quite honestly. I prefer IPB 3.4.xI am not fond of 4.0 because it's like they are saying "Hey V-Bulletin! We stole your look and it looks ten times better!"
