There are a few sites that host a forum for you, all you do it name the topics, and mod the thing. Unforuantly I can't think of the name to any, but I'm sure some will show up with a few.

Sorry, but there is absolutely no way you'd be able to get a forum up onto a free geocities site. Along with not fitting, the bandwidth would dissapear in 0.5 seconds.

Much better than bravenet. They give free forums that look like these ones - they're really that good.

Yeah, I know, I only have one game. Yeah, I know it sucks. But I made it! Me!
