2. Simple machine, and
3. bbPHP

Nairaland uses simple machines forum....though the script has been tweaked.


I don't think you can rival NL...it will take time and give resources to do that. Find something that has not been ventured in a lot and try your luck.....

If you still think you can....then go ahead and give it a shot.

something are missing

I would disagree that NL is "undefeatable". MySpace was defeated by FaceBook, etc etc. Will it be tough? Sure...But that doesn't make it impossible.

Just have a good Unique Selling Point, offering something that NL doesn't and/or improve upon what NL is doing now, and you should be good to go.

Good luck!

Am still studying more... but its like I will prefer xenforo to above forum script...

phpbb is the best to go with because it is open source. It has a large community of users supporting it by writing much needed extensions and creating nice looking styles. a few popular sites using phpbb are arstenica.com, gaiaonline.com, joomla support forum, blender.com(the graphics engine forum)...
Even the colourful 9ja forum www.colourcampus.com is also powered by phpbb check it out.
The potential in phpbb is endless.
