It is.
Just because you like it doesn't make it the law that everyone else has to. Look at this from a public, simplicity perspective rather than a technical one.
This is the most simple board service for the public which still offers enough without having to pay a cent.
vBulletin is complex and has an ugly interface and I could never get the hang of it.
Good on you for liking it, though. I'd say the majority of posters on here are quite happy with ProBoards and the ProBoards interface, features and simplicity. There is, quite frankly, no reason to change, as far as I'm concerned.

I agree. I think the only feature I've ever liked better somewhere else was the PM system on the old official RHCP BBS.

So ... Does Ken pay for this board? If so, thank you Ken, I never knew.

No. ProBoards is a free service. Ken pays for Onehotglobe.org

Pay-pal donations. Its how many free software sites run. If only 10% of people who post regularly donated maybe $10 there would be enough money for a vBulletin message boards.
Or you could sell ad-space. But thats just horrible.

Yes, and these Google Ads don't even look that ugly when the style matches the one of the site itself:)
