    Your thread title asks what modifications and applications should every forum have.

    My advice to you was:
    Am I missing the point of this thread or am I totally confused?

    Sorry, Okenyon, but I'm afraid that I don't understand what you're asking. Care to elaborate? :)

    So I wasn't the only one at first.

    I kind of took the matter into my own hands assuming I understood.

    I kind of went off the thread title since I didn't understand what the thread content was conveying.

    Well with vBulletin, the first two things on your list are standard features. I never felt that top stats really gave the community anything worthwhile so have never used it. Nice for my own information but as a user I don't really care who has the most posts.

    StopForumSpam integration
    News/Newsletter functionality (if it's not standard)

    Those are the two big ones.

    standard features? Yeah, that means you don't need an addon or modification to use them. They are part of vBulletin. The first two things in your list can be done without any addons or modifications.
