I would like to ask the advice of some of the people who are running huge vb forums.. I have a forum about 2000 posts daily, 50k daily pageviews on average, 100k at most. I have maybe 150-200 concurrent connections at peak time on a regular day. There wouldn't be anything on the server apart from the forum. Is anyone running forums like this or bigger? What kind of servers do you use and what would you recommend for me?

Dedicated maybe an option but probably your board doesnt need anything that drastic. I think you can probably get away with going with a host that provides near dedicated solutions. You might want to got to wht to find something like that.

Well I thought someone running a comparable forum would have some experience and might give me some pointers based on that.
