You can't as I'm 100% sure you are not the owner of the domain.

Assuming you own a domain called mydomain.com, you could have made a directory "çommunity" in your domain root and then created a subdomain pointing to that location.
Just delete the subdomain (definition, not the subdirectory itself) and then use the main domain (phpbb.com) with the subdirectory
Spelling is freeware, which means you can use it for free.
On the other hand, it is not open source, which means you cannot change it or publish it in a modified form.
