No.

You receive the domain name, access to DNS, and that's about it.
In addition, there are far better registrars out there. I personally use Internet.bs a lot, as well as Namecheap.

There are tons of hosting providers out there, however if you're looking for something pretty damn fast, take a peak at Virt.IO's offerings

You can use URL forward to do it and forward it to your website.

Thus defeating the point of having a domain name.

I'd highly recommend you set up the domain name properly, without URL Forwarding gimmicks to utilise the full benefits of your own domain name.

A forum is a website. It's just a specific type of web software.

Over at VirtIO, we have automated installation of all the popular forum scripts.
Otherwise, have a ****** around for 'web hosting', and you'll find a fair few that'll do

They still have URL forwarder

ON TOPIC: WHEN you will buy you will see a URL forward option simply do it on your fourms and your fourms will be accesed from site you want.

Just buy and make your own custom domain rather than forwarding it through URL, like .com, .net, etc.
