The forums really lack a lot of functionality, such as an ignore list, newest posts, public statistical data such as post count and so on.

There are a lot of things I'd like to add, although my feature-priorities are probably not the same as yours.

But, overall, the forum just isn't that important compared to other development. It has value, for community engagement (like a system to email people when there are responses), but development on the game is likely going to take precedence for some time to come.

What kind of forum redux and new features would you like to add if you had the time/budget/manpower?
