Ever needed a free forum? Find that all the hosts have ads and links to their forum hosting on the site showing your members you use a free host making you look unprofessional. Well we don't do that. There is no trace of us hosting your forum anywhere on your site.
Your forum adress will be
free-forum-host.co.cc/yourforumname
Currently we are getting the Domain Name Servers set up but by the 23rd of August it should be fine.
We use both PHPBB3 and SMF 2.0 Beta
We check for updates every week and if there is a new version we will update all the accounts to it!
Cheers,
5867Dude

Using a domain frame thingy will hide it

EDIT:Added New Domain
my-cool-forum.co.cc
Either will work when DNS is set up
If I buy a .co.uk domain though that domain will go seen as I can only have 2 domains. So I advise for links and stuff use free-forum-host.co.cc.

The control panel is perfectly fine, easy to navigate around, no problems with it. Have you actually used it, or are you just thinking its bad?

No I have used it many times. Complicated to me at least. I'm used to the phpbb and smf control panels

So, having "Powered by phpBB" at the bottom of each page doesn't look unprofessional then?

(Actually I don't think it does, given that your forum really is about something, but from the way you put it out it sounded rather...)

Well no as people know it is a forum software but when you have something like
"Want a forum? Get one like this for free!"
as well

thats because you aint learnt the control panel yet, and yet even I can use the panel easily with nothing required, just takes a day to navigate it, its simple and easy, yet efficent.
