Forum scripts

One of the best forum softwares are ( free open source scripts )

PhpBB
Simple machines
Vanilla

Paid

VBullitin as used in this forum.
Invision Board

And i have compiled an extensive list of 22 Opensource forums scripts and complete details

Hope the above list gives you a huge list and idea on how to select the best forum based on the features and where to download it from

Orangecopper, I am curious why you chose to include Drupal in your list of Forum software?

 

[orangecopper]

Yes, Drupal isnt a Forum software i agree with you
But in many cases i have found it to be a very very powerful CMS from a developer point of few and can be bridged or mods could be used to use it as a Forum, Blog and a CMS.

Otherwise in my list of 22 selected forums, drupal is the odd one out
