No idea bro, im trying to form up a message board. Do you kno where i could get free web hosting?

Im not sure exacltly, I can find out in a few hours though.


The board used to be on a free host and it was slowwwwwwwwwww. Its on a different host with phpBB instead of the other one and its 10x faster.

that hack looks like the ones for thios board too...

you need a program to run it over the standard scripts or to understand the format of the hack file (i've always done it by hand..)
