… I shit you not.

So I initially decided to install Simple Machines Forums 2.0… for who knows what reason really… mainly because http://www.forummatrix.org/ shows it having more features than phpBB. That, and phpBB has known to be insecure as fuck.

But it just occurred to me: SMF is too early in the free software maturity cycle to really provide me with all the cool shit I want. phpBB, on the other hand, has been around long enough to have excellent integration with almost every blog out there including wordpress… it’s got more themes than you can shake a stick at (though I’ll probably end up modding this theme to work with it) … and it’s got an amazing number of plugin mods.

So that’s it. Common sense has struck me right in the forehead. phpBB it is.

That said, I just noticed wordpress is missing a much needed emoticon button.
