how to create simple forum

Hi,

I bought www . hatecustomers dot com , when it expired, and now I would like to create a simple and easy to use forum. Plenty of "hate pages" against companies exists, I would like to create one for the working people.

People should be able to post their stories with customers. Like I wrote I would like it to be simple and easy to use. This forum fx. has a lot of sections, I would like it to be much more simple containing a stories section, a debate section and maybe to or two or three sections more.

What template, if any, could be usable ? I would appriciate any suggestions.

 

If you don't want to spend much then get php\mysql hosting and install PHPbb3. Default template works great. You can customize as you want.
If you don't want to spend on hosting then go for a free forum. Ask the admin to link your domain to forum. But you'll not be able to customize this much.

 

if you use asp.net hosting, I'd suggest you http://www.yetanotherforum.net/,
it's free and open-source. You can see it in my site: here

 

I would recomend you to get wbb lite 2. it comes with most of the features of wbb3 is easy to handle has good support and there are quite a bunch of mod on the internet.

all you need to do is install it and then create alle the topics

 

Simple Machines Forum gets my vote, it's free and works with no fuss.

 

Thanks a lot people for the suggestions!!! I will look into it.

 

I'm using SMF. It's free!
