vBulletin is
a powerful community solution that makes it easy to add a forum messaging
system to your web site. You might have already seen many successful forums
using vBulletin, our bulletin board
is one of them. We upgrade to vBulletin from UBB on September 2000 and since
then the posts and sign-ups per day have amazingly increased.
Why that happened?
vBulletin has numerous advantages. First of all it is is developed using PHP
and MySQL. This makes it very fast, so that the visitor can check all threads
without loosing time. It is also surprisingly stable, we have never experienced
any problems. Then, every forum is unique as it is totally configured. There
are many other features that your members will love and that will help you
administrate the forums successfully. Let's list some of them:
-Powerful administrative functionality.
-Posts can be edited/deleted/moved/locked with one click.
-User email notification of answered posts
-Support for smilies, vB Code or HTML in messages (admin configurable)
-Lost password auto email form User profiles (editable by user)
-Unlimited number of moderators per forum
-User groups - give select moderators/user admin powers
-Private forums
-Word censor facility Ban users based on IP address or email address
-Users can specify time zone that they are in, and all times are then shown
in their local time zone
-Posts since last visit are marked so you can tell at a glance whether there
have been new posts in a particular forum
-Moderation queues on posting and registration – check new posts before they
become publicly viewable and new registrants before they can post -and much
more...
