What forum software did you start with?

So here is a question I am wondering about.

What forum software)or free forum host) did you start out with.

I myself around 14 years old or younger started with invisionfree.

I then moved on to zetaboards.

After that I tried out phpbb3 and ipbfree.

Now I am a SMF fanboy 😛.

Started with phpBB2, then moved to some random forum software that wasn't popular (don't even remember the name), then phpBB3, then finally settled into IP.Board. (Don't ever plan to change from IPB)

Well I started out on Proboards then from there I went to SMFforfree then back to proboards sadly. However I did go to invisionfree and free forum (phpBB) once but wasn't successful and I didn't like how it looked.

I started with vBulletin, As someone had a site and I wanted to learn to code for vBulletin. So I just look into the coding day in and day out. And still have a vBulletin license to this day

I believe I created my first forum with proboards.

FreeForums!!

I started with Net Boards, which I believe is a part of phpBB, but I'm not sure.

FreeForums.org, so phpBB2 🙂

InvisionFree, then phpBB, then MyBB.

I have of course "played" with others, but officially that's my trail.

My first forum software was PHPBB, but then my first host was Forumotion, which I do not recommend.
