      Simpleress is not actually free anymore. Yes, the core script is still free, but it's absolutely useless without plugins (there even no built-in visual or bb-code editor). The trick is that all these plugins are available in the paid area only. They charge $39 per two months.

    I like bbpress, I translate it to Afrikaans and is very easy to use. You can also customize it like you want in the css.

    I recommend Mingle forum:
    WordPress › Mingle Forum « WordPress Plugins

    I use it on a membership site of mine. The forum now has over 1,000 members and over 2,700 posts and it works like a charm. Really easy to setup and my members love it.

      I have to agree with WillR, Mingle Forum is easy to setup and get working and have to say i love this Wordpress Plugin. I have setup my Affilistore site with this installed (see Affilistore link in sig below) and although the membership section is not yet live I was surprised at the ease of install of the forum side of things and will definitely use Mingle again on other projects.

      I'll also recommend Wordpress Mingle Forum. I've had it installed on a couple of my websites for some time, and, funnily enough, I'm in the middle of setting it up on my personal blog.

      I love it's appearance and ease of use and my visitors love it too.
