vB's code is very ugly. It's hard to find what you're looking for. vB IS a status symbol. EoFF would be alright running a phpbb, with a few hacks.
IPB was a really great piece of code, though. I knew the thing inside and out, and it made sense. At tGA I have to fiddle around too much with the templates to get what I want. I agree that vB is still superior, albeit, not for long.
