Re cast that a bit and I'll agree; I have never seen anything I like in a 
web forum that wouldn't also be in a well done web front end to a newsgroup. 
(In other words, the only thing that forums have over basic newsgroups that 
I see as an advantage, is the fact they don't /require/ a thick client.)
