Your calendar page: you have some odd pun_include at the top of the page that hasn't been processed, for example

The expiration value needs to be time() + 86400: that's the way the setcookie function works, based on unix timestamps
Basically, you're setting a cookie that your browser immediately rejects as being too old

I'm not clear what the situation here is
Are you setting the cookie on one page and then navigating to the forums?

$pun_user? The global variable user data is stored in?
What's telling you that you're not logged in?

I think just having it as a regular group option is ideal. Then, if a forum wants to go with the "Banned Uploaders" idea, they can. And if another forum wants to have a special group for "Uploaders" they can as well

Users provide an email address upon registering

You're on the right track. First thing you need to do is add PunBB's common.php to your pages. Then, when you login to your game, you'll want to call that function, where $user_id is their ID in PunBB's user table, $password_hash is the user's password as taken from PunBB's users table, and $expire is whatever you feel like (since you're using sessions, setting it to 0 will make it act like a session). That will set the cookie and PunBB's check_cookie function should deal with the rest.

What charset is your language pack using?

Well, PunBB is going to be looking for the columns it wants for users. You might be better off simply having your registration process create an account for the user in PunBB and have your login process log them in to the forum and the game.

extern.php isn't a mod, although you could certainly have added mods to it.
If you have shell access, running the date command a few times might turn up something.

1.3 wouldn't help you in the "stuff randomly turning off" department, all it does is make the icons turn off once read.
The visit timeout reflects how long your "session" can be active for before you're marked as having visited the forums. 1800 seconds is 30 minutes. That means if you visit the forum and go inactive for a half hour, all the posts are marked as old. If that's not what's happening, my best guess is a problem with the server or a bad modification
