Whats a good forums?

[warfox]

Xenforo just cost little too much and the Enjin one is with free is just god awful even if its paid one it's glitchy and laggy (from my experience)

If you know any other good forums software/website to use please please list them here!

Can you force a player's username? from MC etc?

What’s so ‘Glitchy and laggy’ about Enjin exactly?

a long time ago still don't want to use it.. (2015-16)

when making ranks it would just disappear and the forums were slow..
most announcement texts would change fonts, and size

Interesting, never had such issues.

Yea this was a few years ago not sure if it's fixed or not don't care or even bother checking it out now.. looking for a new forum system

There really isn't many as good as xenforo.

Free
NamelessMC is definitely a good option but the premade themes for it suck (from what I've seen). You'll need someone to design you a theme if you want it looking good.
Another option is myBB or phpBB. I personally like myBB over phpBB. The theme situation is the same as namelessmc. You'll need someone to design you a great theme.

Paid
Invision Community is probably your best option if you want something close to xenforo but it's more expensive. As you have to renew the license in 6month intervals (semi-annually).

There's a free forum called mistforums, which is quite customizable but it's mostly used by Garry's Mod communities. So the only bad thing is that you'll have to sign in by using your steam account.

If handled correctly Enjin can be fairly stable. If not it can be irritating to look at.

I recommend namelessmc.com, You can get something that hooks players from game to the forums as well!

Doesn't Enjin take like 80% of your money or something?

i dont see that forum software good if you cant customize it to disable the steam auth API. Shouldn't forums be equipped with adjustability?

True, but this specific forums was made to mainly focus on Garry's Mod Servers and communities. That's most likely why they only use the steam auth API because you need a steam account to play Garry's Mod.
