Okay, me and chaz want to make a free forum together, Which is the best website to make one off?

Preferably one which is highly customizable, but doesn't involve that much HTML as we are both pants at it.

Whoever helps i'll rep tommorow, as I can't today :(

lol there are not many decent free forums, like proboards I mean that is awful.

I think you can get hold of some free BB's tho.

Upload it, and read the Readme.

There's an installation folder I think. You'll need to setup a MySQL database, and then install it.
