No, that wasn't a typo... Hmmm... let me tip toe around this one because my wife uses Ezboard on her website, http://www.metalmaiden.com...

Ezboard is good for... non professional sites. They were free but then they realized that it costs money to run servers... so they started charging... as soon as they started getting obnoxious with the advertisements I dropped them off my site ( http://www.deathrace.net ) and went with my own local board script. As more and more people leave Ezboard in droves I don't see any future for them other than bankruptcy. Which sucks because I've been trying to get my wife off their service for sometime now because when they go, they're gone. All of the archived messages - poof!
At least with your own board you have control over that, which Saint does here. Since this is a knowledge base I would highly recommend against loss of the control one has with running their own board... I'd hate to see all this "knowledge" disappear. ( Of course threads like this one don't really need to be preserved for eternity but... :) )

Ultimate BBS is pretty sweet, though expensive. For free message boards I recommend the Teemz message boards, which I use on Deathrace.net.

It would be nice if this message board kept active topics at the top of the page like Ezboard ( and Teemz! ) but sometimes some of these topics deserve to fall off the page...

Probably like this one... ;)
