MapleStory Adventures Community Forum
I find this a very potentially armed online game, and hence, the forum should standalone forum.

Hello Siago,
Thanks for your reply previously. I now know which licence to purchase already.
By the way, have you heard of MapleStory Adventures? I want to create a forum on that, but I have no budget. Can you help me buy a forum license and a domain and setting up the forum? I don't want it to be on this website, because as to make it a sole stand. Don't take me wrong, it's basically the same thing as requesting you to make another forum of MSA, with me also being an administrator. I can help with customizing the forum look, rank titles, avatar and signature settings, as well as integration with FB and etc. If not possible, you can make me a Super Moderator otherwise.
I'm still underage and I really want to help contribute money but I can't. If you can purchase on behalf of me, I would be very grateful. I have moderated other forums and have skills in the forum. I can create forum rules that are really specific. I have the list of what subforums can we add to. I hope this partnership with you will be a success.
I have less IT skills in programming and hence I need your help in doing all I mentioned above. Thank you very very much.
The list of subforums are here. I can help generate and create them. You can come up with the domain name, but MapleStoryAdventures.com is taken and purchased by Nexon. Hence, we can only take MapleStoryAdventures.net or some other domain names as you wish. Then, have and park the forum in MapleStoryAdventures.net, that is MapleStoryAdventures.net/forum or forum.MapleStoryAdventures.net. We can use the main page to post and place other stuff regarding to MSA.
Here below, 'anybody' refers to everyone except guests.

There will be an additional special rank given. Language Translator, which will have a green-colored name. This rank is given to special members who can translate Deutsch (Dutch), Español (Spanish) or Français (French) to proper English so that we all understand, instead of using Google Translator which provides inaccurate translation. A LT has no special moderation tools, cannot access moderator control panel, he/she is just someone who can translate perfectly and given the rank change and that's all. Maybe we can have 2 LTs from each of the three languages mentioned.
That's that. I hope you can really work with me, I've spent almost an hour thinking all those above and writing it out.
Thank you,
