Group Discussions adds a discussion board to each group. Members start discussions and reply with comments, like a small forum for the group. It needs Groups, Comments and Timeline.
ACP > Modules > Groups > Group Discussions
On a group page, members click + in the discussions section to start one. Members can do this by default. The group's owner can turn it off for a member in the member's settings.
