Not sure if this was aimed at me but I'll answer with my thoughts. For something like what you are asking for then I would suggest a closed facebook group. Creating a second account with the people that host the message board might be an option. The facebook route you would have the ability to upload pictures to help with a discussion. Our church has a membership closed group and it works very well.
