Hello,
phpBB was running on amibroker.org servers for a few years but was
temporarily turned off
because of security reasons.
phpBB is nice except it has a lot of security holes that require
constant maintenance
and patching the software many times a month (even a week).
Also majority of users in the past expressed that they prefer e-mail
over web-based boards
because e-mail is way quicker and eats less bandwidth than web-based
boards.
The activity of web boards running on my server compared to activity of
this list
was as 1 to 10.
Best regards,
Tomasz Janeczko
