    Just an FYI, not a suggestion...
    One of the boards I hang out on uses that xenforo like his old board uses. I've never had any problems with it. The "us" one had some kind of problem where it quoted too many people in the conversation instead of just who you quote. The "pj" xenforo works better.

    When it comes to quoting and nesting of quotes - that's all setting that can be changed on the back end of both Xenforo and VB. I too have seen some setup where like 99 quotes can end up in a reply.

    I like just plain quoting and multi-quoting myself.

    Thus far, the more I am looking into it, the more I'm leaning towards Xenforo. I like them as a company, and I like their support group. I like their software and that's what matters.

    Anyone wants to look at snippets of info, go here - https://xenforo.com/features/discussion/

    And across the top navigation bar, you can click the areas like (content, discovery, moderation, users...). Can also click on "Solutions" at the very top for more info. Or click on "Community" up there to go to their own forums. which is a wealth of information for those who run things.

    I like the xenforo more than v. The mobile features of xenforo are pretty nice, and I usually hate most mobile versions of any site. Its the only one where I don't toggle desktop mode.

    More options to get various mobile versions made down the road too! Can easily get some default tools or pay $$$ and get one made just for here. Another reason I like the Xenforo.
