Great website, Very trust worthy, 100% free. This is hooked up with proboards.com as well with ***** Unlimited members, unlimited threads, unlimited size! Indeed ads, but how are they going to make money... It's 100% free... Any spammers and/or spam sites can be blocked and very great customer experience!!! Websites: ***** ***** *****

Good site to gather more information related to hosting,interesting and informative forum.

Good site however be weary of any forum you are new to as anyone can get a forum there, even spammers. If you see a spammer forum (different from spam ON a forum) they can be reported. Not the best forum but they are improving and try to be secure. I have only had conflicts with them over the banner ads as sometimes there are ads supporting scams which are not against their policy. Also you are not allowed to warn your members about clicking on the ads but that is typical of any site dependent on ads for their income. The site over all is good so I will rate this good.

The best and easiest forum - hosting service I ever used. I highly recommend ProBoards.

Beware! All users should take a careful look at the new ToS. Users are forbidden to run AdBlock+ and other anti-advertisement programs, and if this rule is broken that user will be banned from using the site, and all content submitted becomes the property of Proboards. The admins instantly delete forum posts that are not praise or good comments about the site.

A great forum hosting site for setting up your first site, but not as complicated as some other forums. I personally don't find it appealing as a forum hosting site, but it's a very user-friendly site with only a few issues and bugs here and there. And it's safe, reliable, and useful.

Nothing wrong with the main site, no spam/viruses etc.

Very good forum provider, support forums are excellent too.

Good forum provider, offers plenty of customization through Codes and graphics that can be found in their support forum, or through other ‘Member’ owned forums that have plenty of Codes and graphics. . . Very helpful staff on their support forum and a friendly community, but, just like any other Forum there is a few bad apples and some trolling.

Good site, nothing wrong with it as a whole. Sure, some people may have forums that deserve a poor rating, so rate those subdomains down instead.

great free forum host. I mean how much better can free be? :)

This is a free forum hosting service, the proboards site its self is 100% legit. there is of course several individuals who use the hosting service for spam, scams, etc. but those domains should be the ones rated poorly. not proboards.com .

Really good site. Doesn't have spam and it's really to be trusted...

Very Good site. No Spam, virus, or trojans whatsoever.

A legit free forum host, but like all sites sadly has people who abuse it for the wrong reasons. Totally legit, and totally safe to setup and use a Proboards account.

This site does not have spam, nor does it have adult content, spyware, or malware, or any kind of ware. It's a message board host. Get real people. There's nothing wrong with this site.
