No, it's not necessary (there are other ways to promote a forum). Can it be done? Yes. Will be beneficial? Can be.

Its not mandatory that you do seo for any website/blog/forum. It is just a way of marketing of your website and there are lots of other techniques through which you can do marketing such as SMO, PPC, Affiliate etc. Because SEO is a free marketing technique and it takes long time to get results in comparison of PPC. So if you have enough budget to spend then you can go for PPC & SMO. But if you don't want to spend money then go for SEO.

Forum post links are very powerful, if you're managed to pull out one from related source. If you build the link appropriate you'll generate traffic for long term. So use your common sense when creating forum posts and insert link where it have demand.

I think yes...

Obviously, SEO is necessary for every website. If you want to target unknown visitors then you must go for SEO. It helps in increasing your online visibility.

if your forum is active there is no need for seo, most toppics get indexed quicly and some even rank after couple of hrs of posting, just make shure ur forum is seo friendly

Are you talking about forum posts or forum profile links? Because there is a difference. Or do you want to know if you should be doing seo for a website you own which happens to be a forum? then yes.. if not then sorry i'm barely awake right now and my eyes are crossing
