In my mind, the XMB creators are very childish, and I have a question for them and the CPanel Dev\'s. I am not saying anything bad about them, I actually like the Cpanel Dev\'s very much and I think they are great people, it\'s XMB I\'m worried about.
Their lack of maturity is like that of one of my past hosting companies. They are not mature at all. This was posted on the OpenBB Forums.

This is meant to be a small informative news letter, It looks at all the major BB\'s and compares features and useablity.
The BB\'s:
VB lite:
Cheap interface
No features
Cold hard cp
Anoying
Uses:
VERY SMALL FORUMS!
PHPbb 2.0:
Good CP
Lack of features
Nice install
Nice Look
Easy to Crash!
Slow
BIG! 1.6 Megs
Use:
Nothing Really, It is still beta, Take a look at PHPbb 1.4.x
OpenBB:
Easy Install
A Little Slow
Nice look out of box
2 cent graphics
HORRIBLE AdminCP/MemCP
Use:
Use it if you want, It really isnt that great
Wbb:
Can we say VB Rip?
BIG (517 Files)!
SLOW!
Sortta hard to use
Really Funkie interface
Use: Small to Medium Sites that arent looking for that profressional look to them.
XMB 1.5 RC 5:
Smallest of them all
Most Features
A Little Unstable (1.5 still in beta)
Fastest of all tested (That had timing features)
More querys then other boards
Use: While not recomended for production sites, It is generally stable and works fine for sites of all ranges.
Well, Here is the Big Bit. If you are looking for a board to toy with and have fun, PHPbb 2.0. For a more professional board that is easier to customize, a little buggy (But with great support community), and speed, XMB 1.5 RC5. For the all high in BB\'s in all around everything (Except speed). Vbulletin (Full edition).

First off, it is just plain old rude and unprofessional to \"dis\" other companies. Even if their forum was the best, and it certainly is not in my honest opinion, that doesn\'t give them the childish right to promote malicious acts and belittle other forums. I happen to like OpenBB and PhpBB very much, and they don\'t have to go on those forums and post that accouncement. They said this \"A Little Unstable (1.5 still in beta) \"
They are saying their own BBS is unstable. HMM, if it is unstable, why was it integrated into CPanel? Would you like the thousands of clients that use it to like find a huge bug and ruin the reputation and popularity of CPanel? I like Cpanel, and I think this was a waste putting that in until it\'s in stable mode. I also wouldn\'t team with those immature people. For the record though, why did you integrate an \"unstable\" BBS in everyone\'s Control Panels? I think that is very stupid as they DEV\'s themselves admitted it was still unstable. This is interesting. Thank you!
