I am not sure which to use, ideas?

Hello,

I am thinking about adding a forum to my hosting site.

I want to use a free one but I like all of the following.

Which do you think I should use?

I voted for MyBB simply because I have been using it for quite some time and feel it is the best of the free forum softwares. It's a free alternative to vBulletin.

I would probably say MyBB. While I don't have extensive experience with it, I voted for it because I'm not a fan of SMF and even phpbb3 is still missing many features that should be commonplace for forum software.
