themulife.com— Should social news sites have their own forums or simply rely on the old system of email contact with their members?

Sometimes I would like a place to discuss other things than the story topic with other digg users.I've also found myself in a situation wishing I could send the user a private message.
I agree. I am amazed that there is not even a PM system for the website. A forum would be great too!How can these "web 2.0 social sites" forgot something as easy as forums? :SGet forums digg!
may be a way to have the digg 'spirit' comments system and the forums co-exists would be to not allow what would be a digg submission in the forums, and move the comments to the forums once they hit the 100 mark.
I think it's neat to have a forum on a social site. We just created one on ning that has a forum, along with people able to have their own blog. It's for parents only, it's called Parenting Allies. <a class="user" href="http://www.parentingallies.com.">http://www.parentingallies.com.</a> Go take a look, anyone can set up their own social network.

I like forums as forums..not as an alternative to knowledgeable support agents.
