While looking around for options to change my vb4 forum into something else I stumbled upon some praises left and right about Woltlab Burning Board.
I run a small (1k members, 2.4k threads, 62k posts) but demanding community, in a very competitive environment.
I like the multilingual option a lot since I'm from a bilingual country, which solves that issue perfectly.
The forum looks fresh and I assume creating your own templates won't be too hard.
It's by seeing the gameforge site that really got me convinced. Is a lot of what they have readily available (trough plugins/addons)? Or should I plan to lock up some coders in a basement before I will ever be able to have something similar
With it mean: the slider, the preview boxes leading to a clean url'ed pages, the side panels with news etc.
