Hi,
I want to get forums for my team so we can better communicate, I was wondering what others use. If there is anything free and mostly ad free or low, would you please tell me.
Thanks,
[-eTk-]<]|3a|2T[>

Well by the looks of it. This forum is PHPBB so you be the judge. I know on our forums there are no pop up adds as well.

Remember that phpbbs and most of the better boards. Require you to have PHP and MySql on the server.

That's the reason why I selected the proboards, none of what Rudedog mentioned is required. Easy setup.
