Sorry if I wasnt clear enough, but I was looking for forum or may be the way you called it message board for people to discuss topics. Mostly its going to be a political Forum where people discuss major political topics/news about their country. So basically my search ended up with SMF as a software to do the job. I really appreciate the input.... Cheers.
