bahahaha, did that adult spam bot just apologize?
Anyways...on topic, I prefer vB over IPB...the biggest reason simply being that vB is longer standing with a larger mod/support community...the vB and IPB features are actually quite similiar (I've used both extensively), with IPB tending to have the better admin side and vB having the better user side....but the third party stuff is what draws me to vB
