Online RPG

[Cridiron]

Me and a friend are going to start an online text based rpg website and i was wondering what the best software to use would be. I was thinking about using a highly modded version of phpbb but then that got me thinking and wondering if I should use php-nuke with phpbb integrated. Any thoughts?
EDIT: I realized this should have been in the website development forum...you can move it there.

It looks very unproffessional, to have your own game with some template. I'm assuming you're going to write it in php, or something like it, so you should be actually making the game yourself.

It does not sound like a good project in my opinion, i would try something else.

If he wants to try it; let him.

My advice is scrap phpbb and php-nuke unless you are going to make the templates yourself. Otherwise just code it up and then think about the surroundings etc.

Good ideas, thanks for the advice guys! I think we'll just code it from scratch in php...maybe we'll mod phpmychat for some real time battles
