ORAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA.

Learn HTML. 

If you want to make a single webpage, learn XHTML.

If you want to make a forum/chat for roleplay, then learn PHP.

 Actually, you wouldn't really need to build a forum out of scratch. There's plenty of free modifiable forums that you can use. :]

Come one now, it's not /that/ hard. Just takes a bit of reading into. :]

Well a little table-based old fashioned html with a few piccies here and a few linkies there is pretty easy.

( <2cents> As for a forum and such... well its not meant personally, but I wish more people would think about if they really NEED an own forum / chatroom / MUCK / community / whatever, and especially who is gonna use it and whether whatever folks that caters to need yet another place to visit and check regularly. Instead of just using already existing places and contributing to them. </2cents> )

?! I object to this outrageous accusation of predicted perception!!

Lol!

Dunno about forums, but as I said, NVu is pretty good for this stuff - it's what I make my site with and it's pretty simple. And hey, my knowledge of HTML is pretty limited but I've still given it a go using frontpage software and come out with reasonable results.

I tend to agree with Blue on one point though - there is an abundance of forums out there which have no real membership and have been created only for the sake of their owners having control or interacting with a select community. Seeing as this is a different interest to the whole LD5-style community however, I suppose it's up to you.
