Since I am probably the "one developer" Helge mentionend, who uses  
forums, I think I can somewhat usefully recommend phpBB3 (RC7  
currently).

If you run a forum, you need to have a maintainer at least. Forums  
also get a lot of spam.
They also need constant surveillance for vulnerabilities. Don't  
install it on a machine that mustn't ever get "owned" :)

Active forums need active moderation. It's not setup and forget. But  
it's worth it IMO.
