Quote: I think of us as one of the more unique hosts, who else has domain managers, support tickets for free forums? Brandon has added and continues to add many things to make IF a different kind of board host. So the best free forums? no. The most unique? Possibly. That's a great way to look at it :angel:

And yup, I know of this host too. In fact, there are..four good forum hosts total on the net-Invisionfree being 3rd in meh opinion [though the upgrade could change that.] I won't tell anyone of the other hosts, since two are more for private hosting [though one offers mySQL/FTP 100%], and the other one [the one Super Goku speaks of], while good, is having a looooooooottttt of problems on one of their newer servers. :ph34r: Still, Invisionfree is pretty good, and has the best support forums on t3h 3@r+h. =P And Super Goku, C* [I asterisked the second initial for that specifeec' host] is gonna upgrade, to their own forum software. yes I know, I am talking about another one not C*, remember the host on which board we met (GFX Maker) not too long ago? thats the one I am talking about, and yes they are having some problems with bandwidth at the moment.

They have a horrible ACP and support They don't have a horrible ACP its a little more complicated and there are lots of Unofficial support forums

It is based of off IPB 1.3 but is certianly not the same. It is ipb 1.3.1, but Duffman(Brandon) just took out some feature and replaced them with is own, some are better and some are worse. One feature would be the skin changer, somecoders here made some ut they will never be like the ipb skin changer. Another would be some of the acp features, you cannot run mysql queiries, upload a skin( which i think you should be able to do, butonly like 5 max) and the chat feature. Tere are some other features i like, but i think that taking out the skin option was the worst thing, other than that IF is the best free forum out.

Place is still great-just..needs it's bandwith trouble solved. And the IPB default ACP is great-it's got a lot more features than IF's. IF's is very simplified, which is why you may like it more. =P
