Do I have to pay for these forums?

No, these forums are completely free! However, Anoxs reserves the right to place advertisements on each forum to help cover the costs for providing this service. A small fee can pay to remove these ads.

What makes Anoxs Forums worth using?

Not only are Anoxs Forums free, but they are quick to set up, and offer a simple domain name, so memorising a long and/or complicated url is no longer a problem! Upon signing up, your forum will have the domain http://username.anoxs.com/

How long will it take to signup for a forum?

All forum signups are processed by the server in a matter of seconds! This means you have more time to set up your forum.

How can I get my very own forum then?

Anoxs offers an extremely quick and easy process in signing up for a free forum account. Simply fill out the form on the right with your desired account name, password, and email. Also fill out the short security code, and then hit "Create". Your request for a forum will be processed within seconds, without a need to validate through email! Don't forget to write down the details after hitting "Create", you'll need these to administer your new forums!

My forum says "This board has no forums." What do I do?

The board is simply telling you that you need to add some forums for people to talk in! Login to your account, and go to your Administrator Control Panel (ACP) situated at http://username.anoxs.com/admin and enter your login details twice to verify your access. Now go to "Forum Admin" and then to "Management". Add a category, and then go back to "Management" to add a forum to your newly-made category. You now have a forum!

How can I change my forum's style/skin?

Anoxs Forums come pre-installed with a range of skins to suit whatever needs you require! Aside from the default skin, you can choose a range of other skins which will serve any purpose you wish, evem ranging to World of Warcraft, Counter-Strike, and Guild Wars skins! Simply go to your "Styles Admin" section of the Administrator Control Panel (APC), situated at http://username.anoxs.com/admin and click "Add". After installing the skin to your board, all users will have the opportunity to apply it in their "Profile". Of course, you can go to the "General Admin" section of the ACP, and click on "Configuration" to change your default style to whatever you choose!

What can I do with my forums after signing up?

You may use your forums however you choose. However, you must abide by the Terms of Service or risk a suspension of your account.

Where can I get help for these forums?

Please check our Support page for information regarding support.

How long will my forums last?

Your forums will last indefinitely, as it is doubtful that Anoxs will clear accounts. Therefore, as long as Anoxs maintains this service, your forums will last until you should choose to keep them no longer, or are suspended for a violation of the Terms of Service

What restrictions are placed on my forum?

You are entitled to unlimited bandwidth for your forums, so you don't have to worry about your site going down should you generate a huge user-base! However, you are reminded that accounts causing, whether directly or indirectly, improper use of resources, will find their accounts suspended and access to the service withdrawn.

Why are these forums free?

The staff at Anoxs believe that simple services such as forums should be available to all users. So long that you abide by the simple restrictions placed by Anoxs, you will have access to such facilities. However, access is a privilege, and the staff reserve the right to remove it on their discretion.

Can my friends get free forums too?

Of course! Anoxs Forums are available to all so long as they abide by the conditions stated in the Terms of Service.

Can I have more than one forum?

While it isn't suggested, since it won't provide any extra benefit to yourself, Anoxs allows each user to create more than one forum should they see genuine need. We ask you to practice caution however, and only do so if you will use the forum.

How can I lose my forums? What are the rules for the use of my forums?

You must abide by the conditions stipulated in the Terms of Service. The Anoxs Staff reserve the right to revoke access to any forums at any time. However, if you stay within these generally unrestrictive conditions, you should find no problem while using Anoxs Forums.

Does Anoxs have any future plans?

Certainly. Anoxs hopes to provide other services in the future, but need your support to do so. We hope to provide image galleries, blogs, and much more should our resources allow us to.

How do I get rid of these ads?

Anoxs recognises the fact that uses may wish for ad-free forums, and as such, does offer the opportunity to remove ads by paying a small one-off fee in return. However, the ads must otherwise stay in order to support Anoxs in providing you with the services that it currently does, as well as future services. Offering free services, we rely heavily on such advertisements to see that you gain the optimum benefit possible.

I have found a bug within Anoxs services, what should I do?

If you believe that you have found a bug, we urge you to visit out Support page and attempt to contact one of the staff to see it correctly. If the problem is notable, you may find yourself with an ad-free forum as a way of thanks from the staff!
