Errors and Gaps
Having an active forum has become the top priority for many website owners targeted at retaining their loyal readers and attracting potential ones. vBulletin and bbPress are popular forum boards that allow webmasters to stay in touch and hold a solid interaction with their readers.
vBulletin is an efficient and robust forum package that is used all over the globe by fairly big companies. It is packed with a huge number of options to make your forum meet your specific needs.
