What are some sites that you can creat your own message board for free? I keep trying ezboard.com but it won't work for me. I can't edit my board. Are there any other free hosts?

Unfortunately that would include size, space, bandwidth, etc. Plus, you would have to make sure that people don't over post because the more topics, threads and stuff people post, the more the bandwidth increases and with it the dent in your wallet. In fact, before TJ moved these message boards to vbulletin last year, he had to make sure that people weren't making too many topics because he didn't want to pay a lot for bandwidth. Just take a look at the Three's Company Fan Fiction board topics from last year. Warm & Fuzzy 11-28-2002, 02:19 AM Try PROBOARDS. It's pretty good, I guess... takes forever to load though. ;) DarleneIllyria 11-28-2002, 03:27 AM Originally posted by BJL I think you would be better off getting a message board that you have to pay for.

Geez, how many boards do we have on this site all together? Yeah, it must take a ton of dough to keep it operating. |
