I wouldn't know what to suggest for a pre-made fully functioning forum, that I assume was written by a third party. I've traditionally avoided web programming, and still don't consider myself a web programmer even after having to do a bit of it for a living. I'd be better able to offer advice on small implementation details that adminstering a fully written forum. Particularly one with only two threads so far.
On a different note, I once knew someone with your exact name about 13 years ago. Probably a common name though.
