    Is anyone aware of any starter kits from asp.net or software similar to Community Server that I can use to help me start building a social networking site?

    The website is already established, it is built with ASP Classic.  At the moment their are no User Accounts. So, I will need to build them from scratch. 

    The requirements are an application which will allow users to create profiles, post their own articles, interact with other members, comment on other members work, as well as a rating and voting system.

    Rather then starting from scratch, I am looking for some sort of starting kit or a package which I can modify to meet my needs.

     Thanks!

    why should I learn how to build a full social network app when I could probably use some open source software ready made, so I can modify/particularize the existing software in a few days and lunch the website in a few weeks or even less time
    So, did somebody used some open source software to build a social network?

    Looks like you might have to do some work here buddy.

     The problem appears to be attitudinal rather than technical.

     Uncle Bob has a very aposite post on this sort of thing here.

    Posibly Tony Robbins or something like that might work for you?

    Regards,

    If you like going for open source social networking sites, I would suggest using DotNetNuke (open source CMS) and install social networking modules, either free (open source) or paid.
