I have never used neither vB nor MyBB, may I ask you what are the things you miss from vB?
Is it the theme?
Is it some kind of feature?
Is it...?

Thanks! ;)

I have never used Vb as an admin too.
But i have used mybb and its just that it is greatly pre configured meaning many features that it contains , smf uses plugins to do that.
mybb dosen't has a robust portal system as smf has, and as I said earlier, if using an open source software, we should always go by the quality of the community behind that software.
smf has an awesome community,one of the biggest reasons that I want to use smf apart from the fact that smf powered forums open on low speed connections too but I have not seen other forums not responding too fast to such slow connections.
 the features of VB that you asked for, includes this USer Control Panel feature that resembles Vbulletin v much. I am attaching the screenshot for you to see, just in case.

Arantor:
There are also disadvantages to having too much in the core, too.

Personally I find MyBB has always been trying to copy vBulletin without doing so much of its own thing, though more recently it's abandoned that mentality.

One thing I have noticed amongst MyBB users is arrogance. SMF users tend to respect the choices others make, MyBB users tend to sneer down at non-MyBB users - that's my observation on other forum discussion sites, anyway. (And XenForo users seem to sneer down at everyone, but again that's just my observation.)
