    Community Server is best for large boards? Please don't flame me or start a flame, I'm just curious to know CS scalability. Is it hosted in your server? And what language is it written.

      I think it's not about large boards, as vBulletin is quite capable of performing very well no matter how much large your forum is. It's about extending a community beyond forums. When you need forums, blogs, reviews, articles, social networking, etc. all to be under a unified logging system & interface, vBulletin comes ways behind community-based software such as CS. Let's hope that the new vBulletin Blog & other upcoming projects by Jelsoft will bridge the missing gap.

        I thought AWS main concern was scalability.

                  A part of my brain (Yes that little pea in my head) is called "Memory" (Not random access memory, but it is kind of like it as you can access it randomly) keeps all the things i do in my memory thus I can remember stuff.
