Hi, i'm new to the site and I'm trying to figure out how i can put a forum like this on my website. Are their any like scripts already made or programs that I can use to make one? Any help would be great. Thanks

hello krayzie, and welcome to TWF!
forums... yes, there are many out there.
This site uses vBulletin (notice the copyright at the bottom?). vBulletin is not free.
There are many free forum scripts out there. You can try searching http://hotscripts.com or http://resourceindex.com for bulletin board systems (bbs) or forums.
Good Luck,
Mark Hensler
If there is no answer on Google, then there is no question.

There's an earlier thread about free Forums at

Perhaps it will help you decide which type is suitable for your site. Scripts are avaiable in ASP, Cgi/Perl, Php.
If you dont have experience setting up one, I would suggest using one of those free Forums script available and Cgi/Perl type is the easiest to install from my knowledge.
