Hows about YaBB?(http://www.yabbforum.com/) and vBulletin board(http://www.vbulletin.com/)? And about the CMS's, have you ever seen the likes of Post-Nuke or other things?

Have you ever seen Aardvark topsites?

Do you even know what PHP stands for?

I agree with that guest. Open your eyes a bit they are the easiest but not the best vbulliton is in my view my best but you have to pay for it. Also i find that people think phpNuke is more proffesional. As for news posting give learning php ago and try and make your own news script they are not rearly that hard when you know what your doing.

actually nothing up there is hard to make (however, creating a forum from scratch can be a little tricky at times).
The thing i dont like about PHP Nuke is all of the security risks and too many people use it .
Another great BB is wtcBB (http://www.webtrickscentral.com).
I have also heard that Mambo is a great CMS, however, I have never used it.
