Hi Andrew, I would be willing to do anything to help. I have a web server where I host sites and can set up a forum at baseusers.com. I am happy to contribute the bandwidth. Do you have a preference as to forum brand? I have several in my Plesk Application Vault or ... ? Naturally, you can have access to everything. If the traffic is horrendous, I can put a dedicated server to the task.
