You can just make one using php and text files. Just store all the information that you recieve in text files - rather than mysql.

i think its worth the money to upgrade instead of make one via textfiles...heh

it is possible but depending on the complexity of it, it's not recommended.

There are actually quite a few flat file forum packages available at hotscripts.com ; they're worth a look.
