User blog comment:Cook Me Plox/What do you want to see from Wikia?/@comment-1042975-20111022193127/@comment-1724320-20111022200715

I've heard that the forums that are being developed are going to be based on Message Wall. Understanding that there's no prototype of it yet and it's best not to rush to judgement, this is still not the way I was hoping the forums would be. Disregarding the problems with pages for individual comments, I think most people would agree that it's best to have some separation between the forums and the wiki.

I would much prefer to have some type of phpBB3 or IPB forums, if only because that's what people are familiar with. I want to see a vibrant, separate forum community, and I don't think we can accomplish that if something is built from scratch based on wiki pages.
