This forum system (Fusetalk) is becoming bad-ass.

It is worth the asking price of $250+ dollars for it.

I think it's flexibility and scalability is awesome.

Eh, there are a lot of other free alternatives that work quite well. I think FuseTalk is one of the only Cold Fusion boards out there though...

I would consider vBulletin for $160 before FT.

However for a community this large, FT is probably the best way to go.

 

[MrCodeDude]

Yeah, I like vBulletin better too

phpbb works wonders... vbulletin works great too.

 

[RossMAN]

For free forum software, nothing beats Invision Board which is FREE

 

[ChrisIsBored]

I don't see any reason to pay for a forum when there are free ones out there with the quality of phpbb and InvisionBoard

I had problems with phpBB on our site when the volume started going up. I switched to Invision forums and they have been flawless with close to 200,000 posts now.

No way, this version of FT is awesome. Quick reply and PM system are the best yet.

 

[aphex]

Personally...

IB > FT > PHPBB > VB

 

[Evadman]

Fusetalk is cool and real cheap, but coldfusion = $$

Neowin runs Invision -> 744,000+ posts so far...

VBulletin seems better,
even graphically more pleasing

You can always change the buttons and modify the html output to suite your needs...
