I have nothing against free mind you, but wow. These forums need some work.
I will get with one of you guys regarding hosting them for you. There isn't a whole lot of traffic on this site, so it shouldn't be much of a bandwidth problem.

Sounds good to me. This is more or less the place we post stuff we don't need the whole nation reading, I.E. uscho's message board.

What I'm getting at is I will host forums for you guys for free. No ads, no pop-ups and better layout. The forums I prefer and have used in the past are Invision Power Boards. It's a free set of forums for download and they work very nicely. They can also be skinned for different color schemes, etc. For an example of what they look like, check out www.claneve.com . The front page that you see is an add-on portal interface that can be added in a snap. If you click on forums on the nav line you will get to see how things look with the forums.

Here's part of the email that I sent to Tom. I just noticed I'll have to tell him where to go look, but here's the gyst of it:
I've gone ahead and set up the forums (http://24.223.210.217/RowdyCrowd/forums/index.php) and have downloaded and imported some new skins for you guys to look over and make a decision on. The default skin is kinda gay, but it's what comes with the forums.
You will first need to sign up on the forums. From there, click on "My Controls" (near the top right). That will take you to your control panel where if you look toward the bottom left of the screen you'll see "Skins and Languages". Simply select a skin, then preview it. I will also be working on getting some graphics together that better fit the purpose of the forums, etc and to better match with the site you guys already have.
Just for information sake, if you would like, I can also add a portal to the forums and add links to pages that you guys can create on your own, and make the whole thing look exaclty the same color-wise and image-wise.
I'll put a portal up so you can get a better idea of what I'm talking about.
Lemme know what you think and I will also post the information on the current forums for the guys to check out.

Well, the decision would need to be made if you wanted to keep your current site and just like to the forums themselves, or if you wanted to have your site start at the portal and have links off of that (the conversion would take me no time to do) and then your entire site would have the same theme.
Lemme know what you guys wanna do. Drop me an email at sremos@earthlink.net or post up on those forums (you'll have to register first though).
Latah!
