Pardon my curiosity, but why?  What do you have against forums?  I 
prefer forums to newsgroups because they're simpler to use, in my 
opinion, and if someone is a jerk they can actually be banned.  The 
thing I like is that I can run a full text search on the forum and get 
results faster than I can download all 14,000 headers to one of the 
groups here.

Be warned, if you attribute the reason to the attitudes of people on 
forums then I'll turn it back at you: I find the same thing at 
newsgroups and usenet. ;-)
