A good example of forum software written in Rails is Beast:

Write some models to store the users and the posts. Then write some
controllers to create, read, update and delete the users and the
posts. That is the Rails way.

A good discussion on creating a forum using ROR can be found in the
book “Beginning Ruby on Rails E-Commerce” by Christian Hellsten and
Jarkko L. (Apress). There is a problem, however. The text
recommends the acts_as_threaded plugin to help with the forum
implentation. The issue is that the download location for
acts_as_threaded (http://www.railtie.net/plugins/acts_as_threaded.zip)
is not functioning. Does anyone know of an alternate download site for
acts_as_threaded?
