Your frist step is to figure out functionality (which you've done). Then you'll need to determine what tools will give you that functionality, which means you'll need to RTFM a little to figure it out.

You're going to be looking at CGI, probably DBI or another database interface, etc. As you'll need to 1.) interface with the web, and 2.) store a lot of data in a well formed database or database-like structure.

Finally, The Ultimate Bulletin Board is written in Perl, and is open source.

Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
