On a multi-site network with Buddypress, intending to use site-wide forums only, should bbPress be network activated or activated only on the parent domain level?

@JohnJamesJacoby: This would seem to be a simple and fundamental issue but I can’t find an answer anywhere, or get an answer here. What is the preferred method – network activate or parent level single activate?

I finally got my answer, and more, from this very illuminating video tutorial: http://labzip.com/the-definitive-guide-to-buddypress-bbpress-configuration/ Although it didn’t specifically address the issue of multi-site blogs or network activation, the comprehensive guide made clear that single site activation was all that was necessary. It also had some great tips for configuring bbPress with Buddypress.
