Comparing free bulletin boards.

[Giovan]

Coolboard.com, homepagetools.com, and ezboard.com

1. which one has the fastest loading time ?
2. which one has better features ? such as photo, title, last reply, etc.

Or is there any free bulletin board (that is already hosted in the provider server) which is better from the three above ?

Well, I would have to say that EZboard is the nicest and most customizable.

I use everyone.net's board, because for me it's customizable enough and it has chat rooms for each forum thread.

Try http://www.homepageforums.com ... they give you a very customizable version of UltraBoard.

Sorty, Don't know where my mind has gone today. I meant Homepagetools.com(same as http://www.homepageforums.com) ... is good. Their UltraBoard is much more customizable then any of the others.

Anyone who use ezboard and homepagetools, can you post your board's URL here ? I need to look some "samples" before I choose.

Thanks.

Hmm...

I found this note in forumco.com :
Note: Non English forums will be terminated.

Too bad, I don't want to use English in my forums.

How about IkonBoard - http://www.ikondiscussion.com/ikonboard

Ikonboard isn't remotely hosted. Otherwise I'd recommend.

I just had a really nasty thing happen on one of my EZboards. It's making me think that a system that's so hooked up, like with global accounts and things, might not be a good idea. The site I have is very quiet and I doubt of any of my visitors would or could hack into anything, so I think it could only have happened because of being part of a larger network.
