Want to start a Gaming Forum.

I want to start a Forum , which software or script should i use to do that as i am not experienced in any forum tools.
Also the theme of which tool/script that can be easily designed
Any suggestion would be most welcomed

Sorry if I am posting in the wrong section as i am new around here.

 

My suggestion would be to use for start a free forum software, like SMF forum (simplemachines forum), and then you should upgrade to vBulletin . There are plenty of free themes so you just customise them a bit. Good luck!

 

I am using PhpBB which is free and very easy to use and customize as well.
You can try using it before going for a premium solution like vBulletin.

 

I use PHPBB and Vbulletin as well. Free option is PHPBB and it will do the trick for sure. If you want tons of mods/addons and more functionality go with an annual license for vbulletin.com

 

phpBB is easy enough to setup and use. Used it on a gaming website and worked wonders.

 

I would actually start a blog/site first and then as that gathers traffic, start a forum for your visitors. Much more likely to get forum signups that way..

 

Well to me any forum i'm building i use phpbb its free and easy to customize

 

I think vBulletin is the best for it

 

MyBB is a best free forum script.
it can be customized as you like (even with little coding knowledge) as it has got good community support.

 

Yeah, i would suggest you to go through PHPBB, which is very easy for customization.
