According to the HTML5 Working Draft:


The author keyword may be used with link, a, and area elements. This
keyword creates a hyperlink.

For a and area elements, the author keyword indicates that the
referenced document provides further information about the author of
the nearest article element ancestor of the element defining the
hyperlink, if there is one, or of the page as a whole, otherwise.


While the specification does not indicate a resolution for multiple authors specified at the HTML5 document level, the element level does provide support for multiple authors within a single HTML5 document (which should cover your forum's needs).
