anyway, im making a gaming website for work since i finally got my boss into COD4, he wants to have a website for gaming, thus we need forums....

and so i came to you guys to get the best free forums available, now i am NOT looking for free hosting, im looking for the code, we have fibre optic internet at work with about 10 dual core servers, so we are covered

If you use windows instead of linux, IIS + PHP works great instead of apache too. I have a forum (not really used) running on Server2003 w/ IIS 6.0, PHP, mySQL and PHPBB2

www.yabbforum.com is quite good

Oh yeah, just today I installed PHPBB3 on the server (replacing PHPBB2) from scratch.

It's a bit complex, getting PHP + IIS to work well, than PHPBB3 to play nicely with windows, and than setting up mySQL.

If you want help, feel free to hit me up on msn / aim, better sooner than later as it's fresh in my head now

I'm partial to MyBB

speaking of which I've gotta get my forums patched soon.
