Default Favourite Free Forum Host?
Definetely Invisionfree for me. Pretty much every forum I use is that. I just don't like the look of ProBoards for some reason. Invisionfree is really easy to use and I like the look of them.

Invisionfree much easier to use and it's a lot better i think, proboards is quite complicated to use.

Invison Free because you can get better skins and it is way easer to navigate.

I like whatever this is. Invisonfree is very easy to get around but I hate the whole copyright thing!

I prefer ProBoards, you can do a lot more yourself without having to ask the Admin to change things etc. Once you get the hang of it it's really easy to use the Admin CP too.

I tend to use Invisionfree, i set up my own forum about 2 years ago and its still going now, never really looked into ProBoards before but from what ive heard thats meant to be pretty decent as well.

I think this site has a forum host where you have to pay money. I wouldn't have a clue what the actual host is tho.

We use XMB Forum. It's free to use as long as your webspace can have an SQL database, and run PHP.

Invisionfree, a few of my own sites also use phpBB, I like both of them but am moving more into phpBB and want to learn to do a lot more with it as I struggle with the MODS/hacks (things you can add on), especially when people tell me which ones are good and I can never get them to work.

I use http://www.forumotion.com ~ It has a great support site and the admin panel interface is clean and easy to use.
