Best free threaded discussion sites (US)?
I would like to know which are the best free sites for threaded discussions in terms of usage limits (they dont tell you) and uptime. I need some reasonable depth of threading. I am in US.
I am willing to pay something I but want about 5 discussions and dont want to pay per each.
Thanks.

I'm not following. Do you want a list of web hosting forums? Or hosts that allow forums?

I want to set up some private forums for a small nonprofit group. I am sorry if I was obscure.
Some of the sites that provide allow private forums are said to prune them to 150 posts. This would be particularly bad for us.

Try cityhosts.net we have our forums there, they have been cool so far considering they completly set my forum up for me.

Check out Delphi Forums, I've used them for 3 years, both public and private forums.
Their forums are powered by Prospero, which is by far the best forum software I've seen on the net - excellent message handling for users.
One rider - Delphi are feeling the economic squeeze severely, so it's quite possible they might have to shut down. If a forum archive/history is critical to you, think twice - and then go somewhere else
Mind you, any free solution you don't host yourself could close down anytime.
