With modern web advances, the opinions written in the ‘free phpbb forum hosting‘ post some time ago are somewhat changing.  With the relatively recent release of phpBB3 - “Olympus” - free phpbb forum hosting has started to become really quite impressive.

An example of this is: phpbb-forum-host.com - free phpbb forum host.

With advanced facilities like the below, free phpbb forum hosting really isnt that bad any more.

Multiple domain names, custom domain names. You can setup as many domain names as you want, so users could select which one to use. For example, a user can use myforum.domain1.com or myforum.domain2.com if you setup domain1.com and domain2.com. You can also assign custom domains to any forums, so owner of that forum could use his own domain name.

Check it out, look around and you may agree.
