 I actually agree and was suggesting that this is for a later iteration of the software and something that might actually attract visitors to the site.

Any site that is complex to use will put all but the most ardent off using it. Simplifying the presentation and making it easy to use should be the long term goal.

If we can get more google search results for people it will help, a mobile friendly default theme ( the one Google sees as a not logged in user) will boost the ranking. A front page that carries meaningful content will do so also. Simple links off the front page with thread titles and descriptions using the key words that people search for makes it more likely that the forum will appear on the first page of searches - not many people go further than the first page!
