OK i want to install a Message Board/Forum. I would like if the Forum had that you can uploade avatars to put on your profile.
Diffrent positions that you can give to someone like that you can make someone a Moderator or just Premier Member or stuff like that that you have like 5 diffrent positions which you can give the names. A filter for bad words. A good Admin control panel with alot of stuff. A great lay out not just stuff writen under each other.
it should say on the buttom of the forum how many usere you have,who signed up last.when you sign in the last time, how long you have been online. it should be able to make a topic where only moderators can enter, or the positions you say that only can enter. profile, a place where you can write your own Homepage, privat messages. etc. the owner of the forum should have a e mail address that ends with the forums name. like admin@myforum.com. and alot more. i know there are Forums like that out because i was on a forum like that, that my friend had on his site i just don't know where to get oen like that. i hope someone can help me if you know a Board that has what i am looking for and maybe even more please post them here thanks alot.

I take it that you have very little knowledge of message boards? Sorry if I'm seeming harsh, but it just doesn't sound like you are very familiar with message boards from the terms you are using and what you are asking for.

Just about every modern message board offers what you have been requesting. Ikonboard, phpBB, vB, WBB, OpenBB, UBB, YaBB, IBForums, Snitz, DevBB, XMB, etc. I can name lots of obscure boards that you've probably never even heard of, that also offer all of these features.


the owner of the forum should have a e mail address that ends with the forums name. like admin@myforum.com.

That is the one point that shows me you don't know what you're talking about. In order to get an e-mail address like that, you ask your webhost to offer that. Plus, you would also need domain hosting for a domain that you pay for (generally $10). This has nothing to do with the message board itself.

Perhaps you are the one who didn't notice! :rolleyes: The better ones are WBB, PHPBB2, InvisionBoard.

XMB and DevBB does not allow uploading of avatars.

I think invisionboard needs some more testing before it becomes in mass use.

And pretty much every board that does not have this feature by default has a hack to do this. :p
