I'm thinking of installing invision board and using this on a domain we have. Anyone on Dathorn using this platform?

Invision Board Ok
I installed Invisionboard a few months back to see how it worked. The install was fairly easy and customizing ok once I understood how the options related. I never put it in production because the client need was solved more effectively by using a full Content Management System with a forum module. If I were to do it again, I'd pick a stable release. For my test I used a new release and would have had to deal with a couple of updates just during my short trial period had I been trying to deploy it.
I think the previous forum here used the first release of Invision. Dathorn changed to VBulletin but I haven't seen any reference to the reason behind the switch. Maybe someone else knows. -
Invision Power Board runs excelent in this server. I run v1.3 and v2.0 PDR1 smoothly (All versions are free, just that you don't have support). Also if you have the money I would recommend you to use it on official IPB support license that wasting it on vB. Seriously, I've used the 2 of them, and vB support... well lets leave it like that.
Thanks & Regards.Comment

I've installed some-odd 35+ IPB forums;
of course, many were "tests" and such, mainly
to try newest releases, try to skin it, etc.
phpBB, I hate with a passion; yet
I am forced to use it, as both my personal & business
sites are PHP-Nuke w/ the ported phpBB"How can someone be so distracted yet so focused?"

I have used invision boards for over 2 yeras now. They have all the functions if not more than Vbull yet it's free. I also have not noticed any slowdown with them yet either.
