I have been playing around with drupal 5.0 for the last few days. I will just cut to the chase and ask the community out there if it can be easily moduled to perform this task.

I need a type of Forum (or Group Blog) that has three levels of posts:
1. Topic
2. Responses
3. Comments on responses

The site would be organized not by date but using some sort of content rating system like Vote up/Vote down (couldn't get this module to work with 5.0) or maybe CRE (haven't tried it out yet).

So that means the The user-generated topic would stay at the top and the responses would move up and down. The comments would not be rated and they would just stick with the responses as they moved up and down.

Please, any suggestions are welcome!

Most forums treat your level 1, "Topic", as multiple sections under the same master menu. See the Drupal forums on this site, where there are different sections for News and Announcements, General Discussion, Events, etc. Within these "topics", there are "responses" (posts which we actually call Topics), and then there are comments on those.

The up/down business I'm not sure about, but I know I've read here about people working on Digg-clone sites using Drupal. The Vote Up/Down module sounds like what you need, just gotta get it working.
