is there a free forums

hi, you all.
i wanta build a forum of my own , is there a free one ?

[Noss]

Yes there are plenty of free ones. My old one was a free one. I payed 5 bucks a month to get rid of the advertising banner they placed but If I would have left it, it was completely free. Many of them work like this. The down side about the free forums is you get what you pay for and this isn't much. The software is not very good most of the time and they run very slow and you can't complain to anyone about it since your not paying for it.

Phpbb is probably the most popular license free software. http://www.phpbb.com/ but you will probably still have to pay for hosting somewhere. This can cost about 10 to 100 dollars a year or so depending where you get it and what package you sign up for.

http://forum.snitz.com/ is another and what I used for the old forum this included the hosting as well but with advertising unless you give them some money to get rid of it.

There are many others you just need to search for them.

You could try that site. No free forum is going to be as good as a forum you pay for, but they work.
