Hello every one,
We have made a lot researches about forums, and we found out a lot of people hate vBulletin even though they already using it, and the reason is that because there are no other competitors in the market.
So please lets Discuss why a lot of people hates vBulletin and what is the most important futures that people will need it, consider about it, and what should i care about to create success forums software.
I have every one open that post will share they ideas and opinions.
thank you,

The thing is that there are other competitors, and lots of them at that. For example there is IPB and a whole host of free open source alternatives such as MyBB or Vanilla. Writing forum software seems like a waste of time, unless its not for some custom purpose where a standard install won't do.

The first step: Work on your English and grammar.
That being said if a lot of people hate vBulletin, it wouldn't be as successful as it is. So they're obviously doing something right.

…We have made a lot researches about forums, and we found out a lot of people hate vBulletin even though they already using it, and the reason is that because there are no other competitors in the market.
So please lets Discuss why a lot of people hates vBulletin… Riiiigghhhttt.
Idea #1, do a very lot more researches.
Idea #2, don't have an idea for a product and go hunting for problems that it should fix... that's not how good software is made.
Idea #3, "some" is not spelled "a lot".
Idea #4, quit picking on vBulletin; your further researches will reveal there are many, many inferior forum products out there to "learn" from and that vBulletin is one of the better of the bunch.

It is going to take a lot to compete with a company as large as vBulletin. vB is by far not the only one there, IPB is a very formidable competitor, on the free side there is PHPBB, SMF and countless others. vB has the largest because it is still the best (IMO) and has an enormous amount of third party support. There are a lot of designers, skinners and developers for it, you will never be a serious competitor until you have that, its as simple as that.
