It took a few hours of good, hard labor, but the Core finally has its forum up and running.

A modified version of the venerable WebBBS script, the b.net general discussion forum is accepting visitors, though the paint is still a little wet. I'm still tweaking the appearance, and I'm also taking suggestions for layout improvements. A few more days of adjustments, and it should be done--in the meantime, stop by and post a message or two.
