Is there a host like that? Not F2S, I'm having problems with the FTP there, and HyperMart threatens to delete UBBs so...? Is there?

Just a warning, UBB is a vry powerful and very intensive script that drains resources quicker than you can imagine. Many hosts will not accept or allow any script, espcially a script like ubb if it comes under high ussage. Your best bet is to find a host similar to the one you are looking for and use either a different perl script or a php script like vb.

I payed a hell of a lot for UBB... I'm not going to waste it...

Im not saying you should waste it, what I'm saying is that UBB is a very server intensive script which is why hosts like hyoermart have a policy against allowing it. That doesnt mean you cant use it, it simply means if you plan to have a large board you need to get a host that doesnt mind a large cpu drain.

I know. Sorry about the comment. I guess I'll have to use pay hosting after all...
