Interesting discussion @mzltest   I think it completely depends what the objectives of your Forum are.  If your intentions are to get plenty of exposure and get income from advertising, this would not be a good way to go, as you'll be helping the Forum Host with their clicks instead.  But if you have an informal group of friends, with no intention of a serious Forum for making money and getting more exposure, then probably it should be OK.  I'd do a big research on trying to find reviews first however.  Like I'd only do it with a host who is trustworthy and whose Forums are on a server that is credit worthy and with good reputation.

Yes.Actually It is hard to find this kind of provider.It you search "Free forum hosting" you can hardly find this one - most are forummotion(and its resellers) and proboards.I haven't used proboards but it seems to inject large ad pictures in the hosted forum(especially in mobile version) while forummotion's admin panel looks too simple and it's forum software (I thought)is simply a template.However in this host it looks better and seems it is a dedicated business so I think if you have no access to a web hosting you may want to try this rather than those hosts.
