Benign Thoughts

Alright, I just saw something really funny so I thought I’d make a quick post. Ever heard of Infopop’s UBBThreads? Well, I was reading the reviews from tonight’s saturday night live, and I noticed how FUGLY it is. So I see the Infopop link at the bottom, and I remember thinking, “oh, this thing has GOT to be cheap” so I click the link and I’m reading about it. Well, I saw the Pricing & Ordering link at the bottom, and get a load of this. It costs $230 for 1 year of upgrades. TWO HUNDRED AND THIRTY DOLLARS! That’s more expensive than a Perpetual Licence for Invision Power Board, and with that you get ALL future versions, plus it’s a lot sexier than that UBB crap. ALSO, there are better, free scripts that do the exact same thing, like miniBB and bbPress. But my question to you guys is, why use UBB? I mean, I’ve seen other sites that use Eve and UBB and stuff like that. Why??????
