Many thanks
This is not true. Take for example several wordpress and phpbb forums are scoring high rankings on search engines.

Search engines do not pay heed to programming aspect, but surely it sees whether website is HTML friendly or not.

Along with this it will see whether content is easily crawlable, and other stuff. Other than that I dont see any reason why google would take into account programming of website
