Is .htaccess absolutely needed for forums to work, or is it not required?

Also, what DOES .htaccess do anyway?

it depends according to your needs.
Which forum do you wish to implement?
If you want to use url rewriting or FURL(friendly URL) for SEO(Search Engine optimisation) .htaccess is reqired.

a htaccess basicly just tells the server who is and who isn't allowed to view your site

It can also do some other cool stuff, like redirect people, set-up error pages and include front-page extensions.
