Simple Forum Script?

[Stunt]

I'm looking for a very simple forum script such as the forum scripts they use on Ning.com (ex: http://handofwin.ning.com/forum). Where can I get a forum script such as that?

Or, write your own script.

"Write your own" - are you serious??! phpbb3 is probably the best open source solution. The site is down at the moment, but there is a download link. Unfortunately, this means you can't get hold of the all-important mods and styles. Setup is a cinch and admin is straightforward. Translations in many languages. Immensely moddable - see http://startrekguide.com/ for example.

Those are a little more complex, like I said, something simple such as the Ning boards. I want to host it myself as well, so IF would have been out of the question anyway.

If you really want it simple, I like the "write it yourself" approach as well. Paul Hudson has a nice tutorial.

I'm not so fluent in PHP. There's really no other forum out there like the forums used on Ning?

Here is one very simple forum written in PHP http://simpleforumphp.com

It may look complicated at first but just follow the tutorial. This is a simple as it gets.
Good Luch :)
