message boards can consume alot of system resources and I doubt unless you get alot of hits, somebody will do it for free.

Id be interested in hosting it.

I would want to see some cpu resource stats, but if it doesnt kill me server, and you maybe add a Host section or something, it might work.

Contact me off this board....

Hello :)

We can give you Plan #1 for free as long as you place a link to us at the top of your page as mentioned.

http://www.mastersites.com/hosting/plans.shtml

You can ignore the bandwidth limit for that plan. As long as you don't go over 10 GB / month.

I had IkonBoard running for a while (until switching to phpbb) so you won't have any problems installing it on our servers.

Our hosting accounts are setup automatically, so unless you have other offers, feel free to sign-up and start transferring everything. You can use the sub-domain creepcolony.mastersites.com or pick one of your own.

Once you've signed up, I'll send you an email with the banner code to place on the top of your page. :)

As far as the free service in exchange for a banner link goes... I can guarantee it for at least 3 months. I think that's a decent offer. :D
