Default Is there a way for Bluegoop to host another forum?

I was just wondering because my boards are starting to really stink and its hosted for free by Aimoo, which it doesn't have very many good features. So is it possible to have like a Forums place hosted by bluegoop like <bluegoop.net/forums/mgsboards> Or something like that. DO you know what im talkin about? And if so, could there be like colors for the Mods and Admins?

You could make your own vBulletin but that would cost, I'm sure...

phpBB is always free.

I would definitely reccomend phpBB if you wish to have a forum without paying.

You could try this free host if you want for you forum. http://www.tripod.lycos.co.uk/

Very, very little because I have only asked like a few people. But I could get it to be pretty big I suppose. ;)

I have tried many times to get a host from there, but they wont let me put in the automated number or whatever. Say it says 9|42 (9 with a line thru it), I would put in 942 and they wont let me in cos they say its the wrong code and doesn't match. This is what it says -

This is what the code pic looks like. O well. But I think I will try that pHpp.


10 Minutes Later...

Ok, I downloaded the phpBB pack. Now I need some help - go to this thread if you feel like helping me.

I think I know why it might not be working. It says my browser doesn't support cookies or something, but I know it does. How do I reconfigure it to work with lycos.co.uk? (sorry for double post)

You're supposed to type the numbers that are crossed out also. It's to avoid auto registrations. So for that link you posted, it's 8333.
