This forum is originally a PHPbb forum.
Go to www.phpbb.com to download it.

But I have heavily modified this forum myself, so you wont find anything like this.
But it's possible to find several of the mods I have used here on the PHPbb site.
The MilBucks is a modified version of the Cashmod you can find on the PHPbb site.

Yes, then you get the basic version of PHPbb.
It's easy to install, but you need a webhost that supports PHP and MySQL...

What hosting package do you have at Godaddy.com?

It's been a while since I installed this forum, so I don't remember everything from the installation process.
But the documentation that comes with PHPbb should be able to guide you through the process..
And I can recommend the forum/community at PHPbb.com if you have any PHPbb installation questions.

Hm..

It's only 2Gb of data transfer pr month...
I personally don't like the Godaddy hosting at all...
It's expensive, and with very few features and really bad support..
And they have had some real serious prioblems with search engines lately (google.com), that makes me trust them even less.

If you are thinking about making an active board, with over 200 members, 2gb of transfer pr month is not enough!


But when it comes to installing a PHPbb on godaddy, phpbb.com is the best plase to ask..

Feel free to ask me any PHPbb questions as soon as you have installed it.
I've learned a bit about it from working with this forum..
