Hey Krylar,

Would you mind letting me know how much bandwidth per month this forum causes? I am thinking of adding a forum (although smaller) to my site, and want to get a rough idea of what kind of bandwidth to expect - because I will get charged for every Gig over a certain limit, and I want to see if this is going to be affordable.

briant, since you are a good guy
i'd be happy to set up a PHPBB forum on my servers (i got 500mb room and unlmited bandwidth ) if you like... i'd probably give the database backend as an acess db unless you are likely to have lots and lots of people using it at one time, in which case i'd look at giving you a sql server database..

This is probably a bad forum to judge by statistic wise as it is absolutely dead. If you will only have a few people, you should be ok, but if your forum gets popular, they are very resource hogging.
