Hosting PF & PS

Ben's email asked for any suggestions on the forums as far as moderating posts and such.

I was a site admin for a social club that I was a part of and we used the following software:

1) Raven Nuke - php website software
2) phpBB - forum software within Raven Nuke. Common Forum Software
3) Nuke Sentinal - Monitoring/Encryption software used to prevent hackers and secure server.

All of this is free software. We had real problems with spammers and hackers prior to switching our server from phpNuke to Raven Nuke, but after switching, we had no issues.

I know that vbulletin is the forum software of choice, but it's expensive. phpBB with RavenNuke (at least in my experience) is pretty safe, easy to use, and FREE!! Also, RavenNuke requires authentication with each login via a random word generator.

You can utilize ad banners and such with Raven Nuke and it is very customizable. I'd let you view our site, but that club has folded and the site is no longer active.

If this is something that you all would/could be interested in, let me know, and I can provide more details. If not, just disregard, but I thought I'd offer the suggestion.
