On first development, I canned tags and prefixes. To me it just adds clutter but I understand it has purpose in forums. Just not mine, yet. I also reduced the sidebar on forum home. I don't want every last link possible on the home page. I want it to be lighter weight and less cluttered. Yes, I hate clutter lol.
The features I admire on the Jcink forum software are webpages, the shop, and probably custom profile fields.
I don't believe I have any particular features I think are the "worse" or necessarily bad. I think most forum niches can find a use for some features that not everyone may use.
Hmm. StoryBB is weird in that the features I admire most are so niche that you’d never see them elsewhere.
Most useful/valued: ability to create sub accounts with a bunch of avatars per sub account, ability to group a collection of threads together to form a timeline, ability to export that timeline as an e-book, and the automated “topics I need to reply to” list, Discord notifications
Least useful: unread posts (this is just not how people interact with content, there’s a lot of browsing by timeline, and a lot of revisiting timelines), email notifications and digests, alerts in general (we use Discord notifications infinitely more)
But we are hugely an outlier as a roleplay/collaborative writing group.
