Maybe due to cultural difference, in my experience those forums use SMF or Vbulletin are more likely to be business related and the layout looks monotonous, but we tend to decorate forums making it looks more comfortable so they chose Discuz and PHPWind which emphasize more in that area. And you can see many forums with funny smileys which style is quite different from those in western forums.
