    Good Forums To Use For Sites?

    I want to add a forum to my site with the setup this forum has, but not as wide as this forum... are their any good choices you guys can think of? Preferably a forum I can just copy and paste HTML for use. Is that possible? Thanks

    hehe, hey dood, i recon the best BB i m come accross to is XMB BB its easy to install, but requires the server to have PHP and MYSQL which often most servers dont

    Another PHP and MYSQL free BB software would be the open source version of PHPBB, not that many great features, but does the job .


    There may be others, Ikon Board( free CGI version of a BB program)

    Also there is YABB(Yet Another Bulletin Board) similar to Ikon Board, but i dunno if better or not.


    URLS

    XMB : www.xmbforum.com
    Ikon Board : www.ikonboard.com
    YABB : www.yabb.com
    PHPBB : www.phpbb.com

    there may be others if u wish to pay some money for then u'd rather get

    CGI version : www.ubb.com
    VBB : www.vbulletin.com


    cya i hope it was a help

    if you don't mind it being remotely hosted
    www.boardnation.com

    they automatically set up a YaBB for you and host it--no ads

    you just have to customize it to your liking

    What exactly do you mean?

    okay, YaBB, UBB, vB, iB, openBB, BlazeBoard, and other boards of the like are NOT REMOTELY HOSTED. you can install whatever hacks you want, you can edit the code, you can do whatever the hell you want with it. EZBoard.com is remotely hosted. they control what features go into it and you have to pick from them.

    Damn, that board looks sweet! But being in alpha version doesn't really encourage me to download it.
