That may be the case (I’ve not looked) but have you considered posting to the bbPress support forum?

That might actually help you solve your problem as opposed to posting a 1 star review.
I use it on several multisite installs and WP 3.6 and have no issues. Posting in the support forums will certainly help get a helpful answer.
Yep. The plugin forces me to network activate instead of allowing sub blog Admins to activate it themselves (or not activate based on preference). Still a 1 star rating IMHO. Especially since this is not documented anywhere. I spent a lot of time troubleshooting and back and fourth on the forums, and no one else knew why I had trouble either.
Forcing super Admins of a multisite install to network activate is a serious bug. Er. I mean “intended feature”? Either way it’s busted. This poorly thought out “feature” is terrible, and I can’t believe it was done intentionally.
The explanation that I received was, “well not everyone allows users of a multisite to activate plugins, even though it’s a built in feature of multisite to allow such behavior”.
Really? Most plugins work without the need to network activated. The dev’s need to learn what a multisite installation is all about. Giving my blog owners the ability to pick what plugins they want is a HUGE and VERY IMPORTANT feature of WordPress Multisite.
So BBPress 2.X is busted for WordPress 3.6 as it stands.
