I'd agree. Xenforo is a pretty good option. The software is nice on it's own, but there are also some pretty good Minecraft skins and add-ons to integrate your servers.

I would have to disagree with xenforo because I think MyBB Is more editable.

But why? It is more editable but not that it makes a big difference.

For people with little to no PHP/JS knowledge I would agree Xenforo is probably the best since it has a large community with loads of addons and themes as well as an easy to use interface, but it's not the most secure in terms of vulnerabilities - because it has a quite a few 0days (exploits that haven't been patched since the initial release of Xenforo) and because at least 40% of forum on the web use Xenforo it's the most targetted by hackers. In other words your users are not safe.

IPS4 is also a very good alternative, if you haven't heard of it then I suggest maybe having a look. If however you know how to code in PHP/JS (HTML and CSS is pretty basic and doesn't really count as a web language imo) then I suggest you make your forum on something that constantly provides security updates like Wordpress or better yet, code your own forum software

i would say woltlab burning board is the best forum software

Xenforo is mainly the best imo because of the widely available styles, plugins, support and fact that you can find so much information online about it.

I think xF is the best option for almost all types of communities.
