If this is actually a problem you currently have, I've heard great things about FluxBB[0], it's built on Laravel and also powers the Laravel forums.

EDIT: Its alpha 2.0 is built on Laravel and is a complete rebuild.

It's still an old forum-like idea. I built an almost feature complete reddit clone (with some HN ideas along the way) in Laravel over the last month or so. I did it so that I can extend it into direction I need it down the road. We're launching in a week or so and my hope is that we will open source it for others to use as well.

I've had one running on Pagodabox for a while now that's still only mostly done. I look forward to seeing yours.

I don't see a single hint to laravel in the download[0]?

Sorry, I guess I was mistaken - the currently alpha FluxBB 2.0 is Laravel, the current one (1.55) is a fork of something else.

To be perfectly honest, I think it's a problem for the PHP forum space in general but it's one I don't have time to try solving on my own (not admitting i'd succeed.)

Fluxbb looks pretty nice though.
