The style of forum you choose for your site depends on your users.
Novice user have a difficult time with usenet or bbs style forum.
They will not use it unless you make it very easy. That is why you
see bilboard style forum on large public site or portals. They have done
user testing.

[Explanation of UBB-style]
...And that's USENET-style. In OE I can expand and contract threads at will,
like you mentioned, and I can tell which posts are in reply to which other
posts.

USENET style threads. I *really* hate Phorum-style threads, where
everything's just tacked onto the end. Though Phorum-style is easier, it
really detracts from the conversation when you have to write whose post
you're replying to in your replies.

I guess I'm doing another rite of passage for a PHP programmer: The forum
Any advice?
I did code forums once before, but they were rather rudimentary (No OOP, poorly
written, no DB abstraction).
