freeware, the layout must be easy to change, a dirty word function etc.

I think the free version of UBB is limited, but this does not happen with Discus.
You can do almost anything with the free Discus, for normal message boards.
The Discus Pro version ($99.00) has extra features useful for big boards, in
my opinion.
(I use Discus, naturally; a no-frames customization).

Of course, this is a matter of opinion, and while ones prefer Discus,
many others choose UBB, etc. Anyway, we can customize as well
Discus with templates, skins, the options manager, some files, etc.
I agree that usually people regard UBB as not free, since the UBB's
freeware version ( http://ultimatebb.com/home/freebie.shtml )
is so limited that it's only a demo to test the product before purchasing
the real UBB ( http://ultimatebb.com/home/howtopay.shtml ),
which it's a very popular board, it's true.
