Simple Machines Community Forum

My site has turned out great with SMF. So much, that I have turned my forum into a website and it all runs on SMF, even the custom pages and portal! I've gone from the default look like this: http://www.simplemachines .org/community/index.php? theme=1 To a customized look like this: http://www.gamerzgarage.c om SMF has wonderful support, is free (and always will be), and they even have people willing to write mods and codes for you! Just request it! SMF is great and I recommend it for anyone!

Features may be ok but the support is really poor. To answer just a simple query they take around a week. Their server is down most of the time. They have really wasted my time. Wrong answers to support questions. Rude webmaster. PHPBB is really much better.

Support forum for the community forum software, SMF. Support is first rate and always very fast. Many issues will have already been dealt with and the vast majority of answers can be found by performing a simple search. When it comes to extra packages and modifications to the standard forum package, if it hasn't already been done, there are many very knowledgeable people, both part of the development team and community members, who will gladly help create new features etc. I've used many different message boards over the years and SMF impresses me the most, both the software and support. Top marks. ;)
