Should I add a forum?

[bgray]

I'm on the fence with a site I recently rolled out and want a forum admin's opinion if I should add a forum to my site.

My site is a customized bulletin board database. While most of the submissions will be from forum owners the goal of the site is a reference for forum users to find a community that fits their needs.

I love vb and have been running forums since 2002 so I am leaning towards creating a board for this site (not to mention I have an unused license).

The problem is that the forum would have to trend towards a genre for forum admins which somewhat deviates from a good portion of the general audience (of course it could give some motivation for someone to become a forum admin).

Anyway, for what it's worth I figured I'd get a good opinion from this crew.
Should I add a forum to my site or just leave it as a reference directory/databse?

Thanks in advance for any replies.
