Best free software is phpBB but if you want to buy one, use IP.Board or XenForo.

What about SMF? I think SMF is a lot more modern than phpBB. I like phpBB but it's just so old.

Use freewebs.com and make a forum page. That's what I would do

Yeah, if you've never been anywhere with more freedom, you wouldn't have a problem.

Vanilla Forums is best!

Open source, lots of addons and themes and a awesome default theme.

I use PhpBB but it is hard to set up and does not have WYSIWYG.

Why do you want WYSIWYG anyway?

It's easy for users, it looks good, and it's basically a standard part of any modern interactive site.
