1. open the 'index' template: ACP > Templates and Style > Templates > Choose your template set, or Default Templates if you don't have a theme > Index > index.
2. Find '{$header}'

Replace it with:

{$header}
<p class="notice">enter your message here</p>

3. Edit the CSS: ACP > Templates and Style > Themes > Again, choose your theme or Default > global.css > [i]Click the 'Edit Stylesheet: Advanced Mode' tab.

4. Add

.notice {
   background: #ADCBE7;
   border-top: 2px solid #0F5C8E;
   border-bottom: 2px solid #0F5C8E;

   text-align: center;
   margin: 10px auto;
   padding: 5px 20px;
}

to the top.

There probably is, but the steps I outlined are very basic and you should be prepared (and quite willing) to delve deep into your ACP if you want to make a forum, otherwise you'll be constantly relying on other people (or their code). The term 'webmaster' signifies a master of his/her tools to power and control their small footprint on the web; your tool is ACP, you should master it.
