I am currently using MyBB for my forum. I like it and our forum is doing pretty good for only being up a couple of weeks.

Good Luck to You.

My own. By which I mean my own software. Yes; that makes me biased.

I like most of the forum software providers out there, but I love and prefer MyBB. It's quite simple and easy to use. Not to mention, has a lot of key features and functions that are needed.

Yes, MyBB is Free and Open Sourced. I am enjoying it for my forum so far.

I do not mind any of the forum softwares, apart from SMF and Vanilla. My favourite "Paid" forum software would be IPB and my favourite free froum software has to be MyBB, hands down.

I have seen this a lot, people saying the same as me which is free: MyBB. They are a very good free standard and they give you a full, complete forum at no cost. It is a good free forum software and I would advise trying it out if you have not already. They have a good support base as well, which is important.

I use XF as a paid software because it is so customisable.

The MyBB is very stable and don't use much of server resources even with continuously used by 200 - 300 users.

[Hostlumina]

2 for me... IPB and XenForo. Worth the price IMHO

IPB and XenForo. vB used to be my favorite, but not anymore.

And very old in the school of vBulletin (2010/2011/2012) and Im in love forever with vBulletin (3.x Version) was my favorite but XenForo its amazing and I found a new Forum Software Called "Discourse" and it seems interesting to me
