Completely depends on your situation -- big files, small files? Lots of writes or reads or both? Growing tables/files or lots of large dropped tables?
It's for a community site. Lots of small data reads, less writes, many updates, and few deletes.
If you're into small files, go Reiser. Big data, JFS or XFS. EXT3 is slow, but, IIRC, it also is a true data journaling filesystem while some of the others aren't (and that's as deep as I go without a life-vest, if you know what I mean!).
