Just a bit of 'correction' or 'explanation'...

 

1. Originality is needed. I think we have enough Pokemon forums.

2. Your own custom skin needs real-life money. Unless you want to create those by yourself' date=' which is needed good knowledge of programming.[/b']

3. Unless someone tells you how to, you can't make spoilers and bolds and those. You need to plugin. That's free, but if you want more plugins and more cool features, you need money. Correction: It's just the opposite. You can get free plugins, but to upload them, you have to use the FTP Uploader, which some of them is not free, and your own MyBB website (not from a forum creator like MyBBest, which is also not free.

For those Spoiler codes, there's already a plugin there. Just activate it. For bolds, they are already activated... duh.

4. Mentainance doesn't require money, but advertisement all across the web does. This one is weird. How does an advertisement makes you pay? Advertisement makes you being paid. Well, if they and you say so.

 

Hope it clears you off.

Trust me' date=' ive been around people like this for long enough, they think they can make a free forum, and have over 100 members in 5 minutes, they get their hopes too high, rush through the forum, and fail, Also, free forums can not have anything unique as they have pre-installed plugins with no creator-personalized freedom.

 

EDIT: it is illegal (as far as what i've read) to create a public website if you are under the age of 13

Are you sure its illegal? Because I just made one. I don't think it is illegal.

like the hd forum or the legend forum.and how do you see what all forums people have on here with out having to get a link

 

If you really think setting up a free forum will make you popular think again;

 

1) your forum will 100% never be as popular as this one

2) I can guarantee you that you will have nothing unique to your forum

3) Running a successful forum will cost a lot of money including servers, domain upkeep etc.

Technically, you can't be sure on those 2. Sure, it's likely, but not impossible.

Go here. But keep in mind..
