forum

An Internet forum, or message board, is an online discussion site where people can hold conversations in the form of posted messages. They differ from chat rooms in that messages are often longer than one line of text, and are at least temporarily archived. Also, depending on the access level of a user or the forum set-up, a posted message might need to be approved by a moderator before it becomes publicly visible.

Forums have a specific set of jargon associated with them; example: a single conversation is called a "thread", or topic.
A discussion forum is hierarchical or tree-like in structure: a forum can contain a number of subforums, each of which may have several topics. Within a forum's topic, each new discussion started is called a thread and can be replied to by as many people as so wish.

Depending on the forum's settings, users can be anonymous or have to register with the forum and then subsequently log in to post messages. On most forums, users do not have to log in to read existing messages.

    DIY DIY Forum for DIY Tilers?

    Should I create a DIY forum to direct people away from this forum who are doing DIY jobs? I could then make our three main forums (tilers, plumbers and electricians) all for professionals and trainees only. I think that's how most networks are doing it. So perhaps we do the same? Your thoughts?

    ElectriciansForums.net keeps knocking us offline. I've installed a blog on it, and it's crossing-over two databases.

    I can't find the other thread. But it's redundant not anyway as I've reduced the prices. Subscribing to the forum not only helps us by way of having some cash to buy add-ons and pay developers to code custom things for us, but it also removed ALL Google advertisements, and removes the sponsors...

    Bless you for browsing the forum while it looks like crap.....

And all this time nobody else has brought it up to my attention so I can fix it. As if you all thought that's how I wanted it...

    REGULAR MEMBERS: This is the new welcome forum. It's called the welcome wagon.

    With the fact that for years many of our top posters were rewarded for replying with a quick hello, the help they did back then, right up until last week, was going to affect their Post to Reaction ratio with our Two New Tags we have in place. So I've section off the old Welcome Forum. You can...
