Well the Oddworld Forums were bought with money, cause its UBB. I'll list some free and non-free ones:

Non-Free:
-UBB
-VBB
-Ikonboard

Free:
-Ezboard

Im sure there are alot more "Free" forums but ezboard is the only one i know about.

http://www.phpbb.com is another free one, but unlike ezboard (which hosts it for you), you have to host it yourself, and you need a pretty big server and some php knowledge. But if you can do it, go for it; it can do many more things than ezboard and it's advert-free (ezboard requires you to pay if you don't want any adverts).

Nevermind.....

ezboard is not free! It used to be, but now only a 30 day trial is free, then you have to chuck up the Moolah! So sad....

That's not true. Ezboard is still free! You need to pay for the Gold Community only, and the trial of 30 days is a trial of the Gold Community. When the 30 days are out, your board will become the crappy regular one... No stickies, polls, etc...
