Things I like: A really good search feature, file attachment management, and the ability to subscribe to threads/forums and receive post content by email immediately or in digest form.
And in general I really like the idea of a MODx-native forum system. So many sites have such a jarring separation between their regular site and their forums, and it just seems so 20th-Century to me (although I end up doing the same thing pretty much every time). Why use anything but MODx after all?

I’d like to see a search feature that I knew how to use.
I tried "openlaszlo " just now, got told to use a more specific term..

The ability to tell the forum application to only show me things worth reading about.
Actually...what I’d really like is the ability to filter out some forums so that they don’t show up in the Recent Unread Topics list or the like. Although it can be good to look through some of the international forums at times, I really don’t have a reason to do so all the time due to the language barrier. So...it would be good to be able to mark them as something I’m not interested in seeing all the time.

I’d like to be able to reply to topics without leaving my mail client. Gmail keeps your emails in a conversation format and I’d like to have the ability to simply reply and have that post to the thread

Susan, this thread is not about *this* forum, and can include items that are already in other forums.
I interpret Bravado’s request as being able to view all forums on demand, but hiding them from Recent Unread etc. Ignore Boards is a little clunky in that respect. Actually it would be nice to switch such filtering on and off;
Oo, seventhapex, that’s two things -
1) accepting email submission (theoretically possible)
and
2) ensuring that emails out comply with Gmail’s conversation-detection
They would be cool though. I guess if a unique ID was sent out with the mail, and people quoted it when they replied, it could do the necessary authentication.

That would totally freakin rock! I would love to be able to keep track of posts in my gmail. I’d particularly find it useful if I were moderating a forum.
