it seems evilmerc.com has had changes since you listed it as an example forum 8)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Indeed, and the example forum featured on evilmerc is excellent :D

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Nice guide mate.

Kirk and Lars I could handle. At the same time.

You ought to add that if people wish to advertise their forum/site here then they should backlink to us :)

Invision is good but its not all together free and they are slowly phasing out the free version all together. they have already removed bug fixes and support for free people and have closed the official invision skins and mods site to the free users.

I'd limit that to runescape based forums. I don't want to backlink to tipit as the content on my site/forum has nothing to do with it at all; which makes backlinking pointless as people would follow it and be like "what the hell, where's the programming, irc, php stuff?".

Zeroforums owns! They have the best system out there. http://www.zeroforum.com/

 

 

 

Just go look at Hond-tech.com and vwvortex.com :wink:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I'm sure its good but its a bit basic really.

 

 

 

And the permissions system is nothing like as good as phpBB

this is an awesome guide I really needa give you some props for this!

123 Combat / 1900 Skill Total / 99 HP / 7x 99 Stats

Ummm i dunno if theres a catch or somthing but heres some incredibly cheap hosting. http://www.b-one.net/

  • Author

I dont really want to turn this thread into one advertising hosting companies. There is a really good forum here that deals specifically with webhosting, reviews ratings etc

 

 

 

And i would never go with b-one simply because they advertyise as having unlimited bandwidth.... there is no such thing and you will find their servers are down all the time. Do you think that thewy would host tipit on ̢̮â¬Å¡Ãâã3.60 a month?

 

 

 

http://www.chewynetwork.com seems to be resonable though

Maybe a tip.it owner could share the secret of how tip.it became so popular. :)

Maybe a tip.it owner could share the secret of how tip.it became so popular. :)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

It doesn't take an owner to tell you that it's because it was the first of what seems like thousands of Runescape forums. It was original.
