One of my admins asked me the diffrence between the forums and dissucssions module... I right away thought that its one in the same. So I check under the module def tab and see this:

Whats the diffrence between these two?

Edit Forum The core forum module for DotNetNuke. 03.20.08

and

Discussions This module renders a group of message threads on a specific topic. Discussion includes a Read/Reply Message page, which allows authorized users to reply to exising messages or add a new message thread. The data for Discussion is stored in the SQL database. 03.01.00

Th Discussions module is a highly simplified forum... developmentally sort of inbetween guest books and forums. The other answer is.. the Discussions module in DNN is obselete.

due to security issues (every user can with edit permission can edit every post) and a better alternative (Forums), the discussions module has been dropped.
