Comment(by phobos):
I think we're going about this backwards. We don't have a list of
requirements for forums, just everyone's opinion on the existing phpbb
setup from atagar and the demo zoho forum. So to start, here's what I'd
like in a forum:
1. Multiple topics with sub-topic support.
2. registration of a nickname that does not require an email address. If
you supply one, great. if not, also great.
3. blacklist/reputation system that supports nicknames.
4. access/moderator control on a per topic level
5. all posts are moderated until the nickname crosses some level of
karma/reputation.
6. published set of community norms that are punished by deduction or
rewarded by addition of karma/reputation.
7. support for ads (planning for a future of hosting ads directly, not
through 3rd party ad networks)
8. hidden service for the forum
9. exit enclave for the forum
10. user-choice on threading models.
11. ability to support badges (for moderators, karma winners, karma
losers, what ever else want to create/throw out to people)
12. ability to move posts/threads to the correct topic/sub-topic.
13. a defined way of promoting users to power users and/or moderators.
Open questions:
1. do we want to support gravatar/facebook/disqus integration as a user-
driven option? as in not mandatory?
2. do we want to use our forums as the showcase for something like
nymble/blackr? this could help convince other sites to follow our lead.
3. do we want to allow hotlinking of images/videos in posts?
4. do we want to allow attaching images/videos in posts?
