I HATE free forum creators such as this one. Why not use this free hosting they supply here and get a real forum? With that, you cannot edit anything, but if you just get it here, then you can edit anything you want. I dont see the point in these...
But I suppose this is ok for beginners This post has been edited by husker: May 17 2006, 12:22 AM |

Practice running a Forum on the Free ones and it will be lots easier to run one when you get Hosted here. You will understand the Admin Control Panel better, for instance, and know which security settings to set on/off to suit what you want the Forum to manage like. Also, what Privacy settings, and the effect of allowing certain Groups, etc.

i Must say that these sort of forums are customizable. you cant add things to it, but they are extremly useful if you are starting out. It makes running a forum like this alot easier and it gives you an insight into how the forum will run.

With that, you cannot edit anything, but if you just get it here, then you can edit anything you want. I dont see the point in these... But I suppose this is ok for beginners I don't understand the limitations of free forum hosting services. Or rather, I don't find much limitations as compared to the ones hosted here. Surely, I've seen many free hosted forums have proper and nice mods on them as well as multiple skins for the visitors to choose. Other than ads on the free forums, I don't find other negative points not to use them. As comparing the free forums to the ones hosted here, it would be hard to choose because the forums hosted here may be gone forever if you've broken one of the rules by accident, or even you may not know it. That would be worst if you've alot of registered members and your forum becomes very active. On the other hand, a free forum will hardly be banned unless you are doing illegal stuffs with it. Hence you can be better assured that you have your forum with you even when you've changed your web hosting service. For me, I'd rather have services hosted on different servers so when something goes wrong with one, the others will not fall. |

if i was you i would get a hosting account here and setup a smf board its so much better than a crappy free one, no offence but you can do so much more with it and customize it and everything, i have had several forums and i can safely say that it is better to get a free hosting with no ads and hosting the forum yourself, yeah thats the best way around it, he he good luck on getting a hosting account here and hten you can have a rockin forum that is totally cool, very ncie tyhough and good luck matey, thanks for the links and bye bye

I found this good Forum Hosting called Forumer.com . Its got Phpbb and IPB 1.3 hosting. I think it has around 30+ skins. I have been using it for a year now and unlimited bandwidth and storage. and support is very nice. I got answers withing 30 mins. Its got something called fbucks in its support forums which can be used for ad removal. Out of all forum hosts i've used i feel this is the best.

I prefer spreebb.com. They are fully customizable and are run off some IPB. but they are good. IF skins work with them, and they have some cool options like a recycle bin forum. Look at what I made with it ( sign up if you want)
http://artev.spreebb.com/index.php? I have used forumer and it was kind of crappy, since there are onl 30 skins and it is not moddable. So yah, spreebb FTW. |
