Post by: drewtoby on July 14, 2011, 11:54:54 AM

Hello, I own http://land-before-time-forum.host56.com/bbpress/ (http://land-before-time-forum.host56.com/bbpress/), which is a small land before time forum. I am currently looking for members, mods, and admins to join! If you are interested, sign up and respond below!

P.S.~ I am also looking to exchange banners with this forum.

P.P.S.~ I am reposting due to my site being down on my first post.

If you need a admin or a mod I would be more than happy to be a admin if you want.

I might be interested. I looked on the site and it seems like a friendly little forum. :^.^: The one thing I have to know is if it is free or not.

Thanks for the sign ups! I promoted those who responded above. Yes, the site is free. Anyone else interested?

I'm not sure if I will join or not. Web of Trust labeled the site as potentially dangerous (yellow) and that's because of host56.com's reputation, which is also in yellow but with more votes (meaning more people strongly feel that people should exercise caution when accessing it).

It is hosted with 000webhost, under that sub domain. The forum is powered by bbpress. If you want, you can check those sites/programs to be sure. I did not download malware to it  :lol: .

I wasn't saying that you did. I was just pointing out that Host65, which is what that forum is hosted under (the URL even contains Host65) is labeled as potentially dangerous.

That webhost is frequently abused by spammers and hackers to spread rogue antivirus programs and hacking applications.  This forum SHOULD be safe, as even if malicious data is stored on the same server as the one this forum is hosted on, it shouldn't be able to transfer over and infect this site.  But you can't be too careful.  I strongly recommend you choose another host Drewtoby.  Although the chances of infection are virtually non-existent, you won't catch me hanging around that forum.  It's just not worth the risk.

I'm not trying to discourage anyone from joining the messageboard. I hope I didn't come across like that.

You did not. Thanks for the heads up  :) . I may move to paid hosting sometime in the future.

I'd say wait and see for now with the paid hosting. You need an active forum to make it worth your while.

You can create a forum with http://www.zetaboards.com/ (http://www.zetaboards.com/) its bug free...I would recomend it over any other free or paid forum hosting. If you create one with zeta or http://www.invisionfree.com/ (http://www.invisionfree.com/) or http://www.proboards.com/ (http://www.proboards.com/) I can help you with all three hostings, and all three of these have no fee to pay to create a forum.

I will wait for paid hosting. I host another site with 000webhost too, so when/if I decide to upgrade it will be a 2 for 1 deal  :yes
