RE: Forum Software

I've been using dcforum for about a year now. It can handle your needs with
ease and give you as much or as less control as you would like. You can also
create different boards for different hobbies if you'd like all within the
same forum.

Hello;

I'm looking to set up a discussion forum on a hobby site.
I'd need something that could handle multiple threads, linking between
threads,
& let people link in images but not host them.

Something an admin could have some level of control over.

And as a hobby site using some sort of freeware software.

Specificly a shared fiction site constrained to a prechosen topic.

Does anyone know where I could find such.

I have a rudimentary understanding of Perl and know Java; so I could
maintain
something requiring those skills. Unfortunately I'm not at the level were I
could create it on my own.

I've had experience with WWWboard from Matt's Script Archive a few years
back
but found it not up to the task of multiple threads and displaying in an
orderly
fashion (it displayed all and not just a 'last few days' listing).
