I was thinking of starting a forum with VB software. I was wondering if there was anything I needed to know about like how much everything costs and crap lke that. xD

Istvan told me how much the software costs, but I didn't quite understand what the monthly fee was for, even though I suppose it's for hosting. xD

I think you can set up a basic proboard that has free hosting, not too sure but you wouldn't get much in the way of customization though.

Yes the monthly fee is for hosting. There's no point having the software if you've got nowhere to put it.

You can download nulled copies of it thereby getting it for free is what he means.

$2500 (last time I checked) is a felony for pirated software, so no.

So liek, it can't evar become as popular as like something you'd find in a search engine?

The Master · 09-15-2007, 07:16 AM

Best not to really, but you can always do what we did and just use the illegal copy until you can be arsed to buy a legit copy of it or something

L · 09-15-2007, 07:41 AM

Sounds like a plan to me.

And if it's not legit, how did you get the shoutbox an' shit? xD

The Master · 09-15-2007, 07:56 AM

whether it's legit ro not doesn't stop you installing stuff, it all works exactly the same way, you just don't need to put in your license number when you install it

But you still need to pay for a server that hosts you forum, right?
