Forum based sites are doing just fine. vB5 had issues from the get go, and it's release 3 years after alot of people paid already to upgrade to vB4, put a sour taste in their mouths.

i see what you're saying but forums are no where near as popular as they used to be, and twitter/facebook have a lot to do with the evolution of community communication.

i mean obviously i'm not saying forums are dead, but their prominance is substantially lower than it was 8 years ago

I'm just a little bummed. I also wasn't aware of the lack of hooks which bothers me because I had intentions of developing some things, but that might not be possible.

I'll figure it out, just very surprised. I'm definitely not looking to change platforms at this point.
