True. But just for the record... there are hacks at vB.org for multi moderation and inline moderation and the other stuff. + You don't have to pay Big Bucks for addons [You can get community blog system free in vB and not IPB

]... In the end, you are right, It all boils down to Personal prefrences.

It all depends. If you have hosting and have a cPanel if your webmaster supplies with a add on into your cPanel called Fantastico they have it. I know with the hosting I provide it’s for free.

Well hosts can only provide IPB in fantastico as long as its either 1.3.1 or pre 2.0 PF4 versions as the new license agreements came with the release of 2.0.0 final version, atleast my host provides fantastico with 2.0.0 PF3 IPB.

No, Invision Power Decided to cut off the freebeis becaue of the new stages that they have going now. Matt and Charlesare also trying to promote there upcomming IPB Blog to all thier exsisting clients who already purchased their ipb.

However, the best way is NOT by getting it fromelse where except a CPanel. Get with your hosts and upgrade your hosting account to a CPanel that has fanasticio in it. They should have the latest IPB1.3 free there. Thats all I know and to be honest, Matt has hard coded the other versionsto catch the piracy.

I have a free Invision Board. I won't pimp it since I am unsure of the rules but I'll give you the link where to go to get your own.

http://invisionfree.com/index.php

Excellent software with lots of support.

Yes, Pulse is right, read below this line as I quote:

•

Trial Limitations

The trial version is encoded which means you are unable to view the PHP source or modify the PHP source. There are also these hard limits:
5000 Posts

1000 Topics

1000 Personal Messages

200 Members

Bulk Mailer Disabled

Language Editing Disabled

SQL Toolbox Disabled

No IPB Portal Included

No SSI Export Facilities

No ability to upgrade between trial versions

If you exceed any one of these limits, your board is turned offline and access to your ACP is removed. If you choose to purchase a full Invision Power Board you can upgrade your trial version to a full version so you won't lose your current members, posts, etc. The full version comes with readable source code which means you're free to modify the PHP code for your personal use.
