The forums you create on FORUMS libre belong to you. When you create a forum you can specify the license you wish to share it under.

You can add tags to your forum, to help classify it, and help other users find it. Some relevant tags include 'rec', 'sports', 'business', 'software', and 'school'. The tags are entered as a comma separated list.

You can create either a public forum that will be accessible to anyone, or a private forum that will be accessible to only the users you grant access to.
