What's the best forum for an OTS?

[Deaktiver]

Hello,

in this poll I want to hear your opinion about 'forums' because I need a new forum for my own ots.

- MyBB
- InvisionFree
- phpBB 2
- phpBB 3
- Another good board

just vote above and give your statement..

Regards,

I would go with mybb. because it has nice styles, good community for support, easy to configure and it is free, which bulletin boards like Vbulletin and IPB aren't, and phpbb just dont feel good with their reputation on the internet.

mybb, free,easy and very customizable.

It's actually useless, the only positive thing about it is that it might attract some new players nothing more.

And don't forget that the hosting is taking care of.

Oh yea, forums are often so hard to host

could anyone give me a positive preview of a full working myBB forum? I've only seen some boards with a stupid style..

You can get free hosts out there also..

But Otland is way better, also it includes modifications, like the blog, project tools etc.

It really doesn't matter what you pick. You should just go under google > "free forum hosting" and look at features different sites give you. Depending on what you need, for your OTServer.

Well, I got vBulletin before but license is gone. Now I need something that looks clean, got features and easy to use!

also hosted forums are better since previous otland users dont have to register again, which is a major plus since I hate to register at forums

I use PHPbb and i have customized the login part so my players just login with their character name and their account password so they dont need to create a new account just for the forums.

Ye i know the style is the default, but it works.
