someone may have already said this... but it seems like also a strong differentiating thing for Microcosm to have. you want to make forums available to everyone, average web-users. for those that have never much used forums before, it won't necessarily be obvious what the benefit is over eg. making a facebook group/page, and pseudonyms is an obvious difference. it's also part of a trust thing, I think? saying the user is in control. whereas people feel like they are never quite in control of facebook privacy/information, and that's quite a mainstream opinion even if the average user can't really put their finger on it.
