Has anyone tried out the various freely hosted forum services available out there? They became really popular when the craze for having a forum grew and everyone could not afford php or perl enabled hosting package. i dont know if many are still around but i remmeber bravenet has it and perhaps some oither sites as well.

My first message board was a remotely hosted forum... from proboards... Some of the features they had I liked.. but I still prefer hosting my own.

I first used proboards too, but I later moved to local hosted phpBB then to hosting other people's phpBB boards to making my own version of a heavily modded phpBB for people to use.

Chris's service is very good - he has many customisations to make it easier for the admin of the board.

I've only ever used proboards and invisionfree when they first opened...I always prefer hosting it myself.
