Why don't my forums ever show up in search engines?

I have been running my forum for more than 2 months now and any thread I make, I ensure I put tags to help search engines, then I resubmit my sitemap to google, ask, yahoo, and bing every night via the SEO Tools, and my site/forum is not blacklisted...but I NEVER find anything that links to my forums in search engines..

Example, Thunderbird v10.0.1 was just released, I made sure I immediately create a post and post a download link (which links to the Mozilla FTP Server directly), in the tags, I put:

mozilla, thunderbird, v10.0.1, download

I then resubmitted my sitemap and searched on all the above mentioned search engines and none of them have any link to my forums...yet, you see many sites that already show up when you put search: thunderbird 10.0.1

What gives? how does this work and what can I do to improve this?
