Hi,
I'm looking to create an online forum, and would like to know what options are available today.
I'm creating a forum for a group of people with common interests. I would like to be able to customize the looks, and I would like people to be able to register as any regular forum would allow it to.
Then I would have permissions for certain areas, so that only registered people would be able to post messages on the forum, or even limit access to specific areas to registered users, or even some specific users.
It would be great if I could put some adds on it, so they can pay a domain name for a forum.
If possible, I would like not to maintain a server on my own, to avoid administration and security altogether.
What would be the best options around?
