Subject: Setting up a sites preferences...

I have a question about setting site specific options;

I am finally getting around to finalizing a UBB-like Forum system. 
And I am re-writing from scratch ALL the code to the Corral Method. 
The thing I am battling is I really want to make this a 3 database 
system. Admin, Users, and Forum. BUT, I am wondering if I should do 
away with the Admin database and create and modify include files 
instead. Does anyone have any ideas what would be better to 
integrate, database or admin files? Of course I think the file method 
would require more programming...

For instance the Admin features;
will be setting site globals like;

1) Create a new forum group...
2) Limit the amount of threads for that group...
3) Add a moderator for x.group...

Thanks.
