if linux was a million times better than windows
then this host is like linux when
other hosts are windows :D

the best thing is the simplicity ur hosting offers
no ftp makes things so much easier
including installing themes
which are readily available


yay!!!
i love ya ;D

p.s. cud u just tell us ur first name
so we cud refer to u more easily :)

I found it on Google as well.  I had to go a couple of pages though.  It SHOULD be on the first page along with InvisionFREE and PHPBB.

Fixed your user. You demoted yourself to a global moderator. You need to be an administator in order to use the admin functions.

I had a forum with another service, then that service crashed and had a complete data loss.  I searched for other services through google and this was the best I've seen.  Very user-friendly and flexible with what we want. 

Me like very much!  Thank you SMF For Free!!  You always make me feel like a happy OnStar customer!!   ;D

I originally used the getPHPBB host for my forum, but after being locked out of the admin panel (and the drama of creating the g-mod group) I googled for a free SMF host/server and found this place, and despite the small number of members thus far, it's more than would have registered on the original. I was also determined to not use anything invision due to a lack of options and how common they are.

A friend converted his bhpbb site to SMF and I noted it and explored the smf website some. A month later I conducted a google search for a free version and found smfforfree and opened an account. That was back in October and I'm finally getting around to actually setting up my board.

I found out about it from a couple ways, kinda.

I had been looking for freeweb hosting that was good for a long time and I had been hanging out at moparscape.org/smf (http://moparscape.org/smf) for a while (I had always wondered what SMF stood for, lol). Since it was a SMF site,I saw some1 on there and it had the part near the avatar where the AIM, Yahoo, all that stuff is, it had their website. So, i felt like checking it out and I thought "what?" It looks just like Moparscape. org!
So I asked the owner of the site and he told me about this place!

Im glad I checked out his site or I never would've found such an awesome place!

 :D :D :D :D :D :D :D

I actually found it through one thing: Not a Search Engine: But from a 20 year-old guy! It sounds wierd, yes, but I actually found SMFForFree through an adult. It's wierd because I'm only 10  :coolsmiley: Ok, here's the story: I was playing basketball, and then this guy walked up...It was 3 on 2, so we let him in, cool game and all, but then he started talking about his website. He mentioned the name to my friend, and I didn't get it...So I asked him what the "SMFForFree3" Was. He said that it was a cool thing that let you create sites and not have to pay a penny. At the time I wanted to create a website so bad... Because I had a club of about 90 people, but only a few signed up. It was called "AMS Harp Seal Society" the www infront of it was just a typing error. So there concludes it.

i at first had a yourbb.eu but it didnt have a way to get rid of adverts or child boards , so i moved to buildaforum.com but that was useless on support , i was totally new and u had to build the whole not , nothing to get started n admin panel was very confusing , so then i moved , me n a freind paid for a domain org.uk but the server kept going down , we was scouted by a host with smf , all was well but the person hijacked my forum we paid for another domain , she did great work , but we just clashed n had a row with her saying a babies death is no worse than a grans (which is a bad thing to say to a bereived parent) so we moved again , i was on a freinds forum saw the link on the bottom to get our own site , and here we are :)
ive probably missed a move somewhere too lol
but so far u have been the best n fantastic to us all

 Well I use to play RuneScape and figured out how to make a RuneScape Private Server. Later I decided to try others out. I found a really good one about a year ago and been on it ever since. At least the forums that is. The forums were SMF and I liked the set up. Anyways that's how I found out about SMF I have made a forum myself as well. Keep up the good work SMF!

Like a lot of people i guess, i stumbled upon it via Google. 

As a member of a few forums i much prefer the user interface and styling of the SMF platform as it is very easy and simple to use but allows for such a high degree of customisation so that each board carries its own subtlties

Post by: simply sibyl on March 18, 2008, 03:32:37 pm
Just realized I never replied to this one.

Over two years ago my forum was with another host and running phpBB.
It was clumsy, lacking alot, and their service and support was horrendous.
The forum was down, more then it was up.   My members had about had it.
I knew about the simplemachines software, liked the way the forums work,
so did a Google search and came upon Smf For Free.   I browsed all through
the support forum before signing up for a forum and found it very helpful here.
That was a plus in my book as I had no idea back then how to do anything with
the software.     Was a wise move.. members are happy..  forum works great.

I found this website on Google, I've tried alot of other Free Website Hosting services, none of them are as good as compared to SMF. This is the best forums site I've ever seen... But you've got to put a SMF email too. So when you want to ban someone or something, you could email them at something like this Administrator@yourSMF.com then it will be totally cool. :)

"...well, it's a long story..." said the goblin somehow knowing that while his site was still down in migration at least, he did have time to explain it over his coffee this sunny morning, so the goblin reflected, sipped his coffee and waited on his words again until finally saying "...well, it goes some way back now to the war of the witches again, that balance of power in Munchkinland was at stake, and the feeling that if one didn't do something, evil might prevail here...", the goblin's mind went back to that fortuitous day again that he had googled under "save Munchkinland" only to be offered the link to SMF, and how something within his sinews had interpreted this to be his calling here

suddenly the goblin flicked open his SMF handset, repeating "...Goblin to Enterprise, migrate us up Sibyl...", Spock raised his eyebrows, looked straight at captain and then voiced calmly "...strangly, captain my sensors seem to be reading a usually odd lifefrom just a post above us...", "...Spoke, remember that this is Munchkinland so it's either a flying monkey or a Liverpudlian..."

I discovered SMF for free when MSN decided to ditch their Groups and I was looking for a new home for Xtra News Community 2 (a group of mostly Kiwis, but with a sprinkling of members from elsewhere around the world).

I didn't like the look of Multiply, which was being promoted by MSN. A number of other groups migrated to Multiply and alhough everything was transfered across okay, the Multiply format sucks.

So we sat back and watched to see what some of the other groups did. A lot of them were migrating to Yuku or ProBoards, but in the end we noticed some of the Aussie groups moving to SMF for Free and after looking carefully at all options, we eventually decided SMF was by far the best format, so created out new group with SMF for Free.

We copied and archived the old group at MSN ourselves. One of the moderators copied the entire group and ALL embeded files (including those hosted elsewhere away from MSN) onto one of the servers at his business. MSN cut him off twice (he didn't tell them what he was up to and I imagine MSN thought they were on the receiving end of a denial of service attack), but both times he was cut off, he changed his IP number and got right back in and carried on until he got the entire group. We are about to burn it onto DVDs (we can fit the entire contents of the group on a single DVD) and make it available to any of the members who would like a copy.

And.....several months at SMF for Free have proven to us we made the best choice. SMF rocks!!!

"...actually, there was this crack of thunder, the heavens opened, and the voice that clearly went "fancy starting a forum goblin, look I know just the place for you then"..." related the goblin eying the stubborn clock while his site was still down now, but the real question, the goblin remembered thinking at that point, was somewhere else as the memory refreshed itself in his patient mind, somehow the goblin understood that any site would become the fixed address of the admin of it, simply did he want to become fixed then, or remain floating, since the level of responsibility was clearly different, the pros and cons abounded, "...anyway, I remember saying "nah, not my thing, I'm really not the admin type, besides, those humans argue by nature and always doubt ones intentions too, but then again if it's just a storeroom where I can store my stuff and have next to no members, then I suppose I could become one"..." and with that the goblin's and the SMF's paths crossed, hardly a discovery then, more as a calculated compromise it seemed

"...well, usual stuff there was this light in the sky..." replied the goblin trying to remember now, adding "...and then, after being whisked up inside, there were this bunch of aliens giving SMF forums some to sales pitch for humanity's sake as the last hope against mindless facebook now, and of course I didn't believe a word of it, knowing that those on facebook became illiterate, yes, but those on SMF mostly went mad now, leaving the only question of which was better then...", but that, like his sanity after all these posts seemed long ago now

How did you find SMF For Free?

I searched for "best free forum software." SMF was recommended.

I then searched for "free hosting smf."

I think I've actually come to the wrong place  :crazy2:

Was looking for how to do something to my SMF, not hosted with you, and without knowing this place is for forums hosted with you, joined and then discovered, you can't help me  :uglystupid2:

I found this site when my last forums back on the old InvisionFree boards began to crash consistently. Another forum I was part of used SMF, but they wanted you to rent a server and all that. So I searched for free SMF boards and voila. Here I am four years later, and have no intention of going anywhere else. Liked it so much I began contributing by buying services for my forums as well.  8)

Hi
Looking for some help and advice please.
Over 10 years ago a forum began called Featherstonemad / Make A Difference Forum. It definately made a difference and was alterred a town for a short while for the good. It was started by a great guy and computor buff who has sadly just past away. I and another person were moderators. I do not wish the forum to close and wish to keep it going especiallyb as I think the town needs it again. My question is who should I contact to alter the ownership and take over any costs? Any advice walmly welcome.
