Most every "professional" forum on the internet uses vBulletin.

There are some good reasons for that.

Why are we any different?

I've used both, and I prefer SMF to vBulletin. Still, I like Vanilla better than both.

Is vBulletin free and open-source?

It's not as pretty but AKCS holds up under extreme load much better than either SMF or vBulletin.

No. PHPBB is tho and it's even better than SMF imho.

Why can't I see a list of all my started topics in a row? Whenever I want to find a topic I created I have to search for it or make sure I bookmark it after creating it.

I agree about PHPBB. I have run several boards (not nearly as active as this, though) for many years with PHPBB. I highly recommend it.
