I just created a beta service that allows you to run your own punBB Forum absolutely free of charge. It does 99% of the setup for you, just fill out your username, password, email, and desired URL and you are set! There are no ads, just a little text link on the bottom of the page.

I didn’t spend a super long time making the account creator so there may be bugs, however thus far it seems pretty solid. I created a few test boards:
- http://my.phpsn.net/uberamd/index.php
- http://my.phpsn.net/admin/index.php

To get started simply visit http://my.phpsn.net. Give it a try, if you find bugs let me know. Accounts are created automatically, and instantly.
