What is a forum?
Sort:
A forum is an area where conversations take place. These are the forums on chess.com:
Each forum contains many conversations called threads. Many people confuse threads for forums. Just remember that a forum is a place and a thread is a conversation within a forum.

A forum is like a group chat, and threads are the messages in the chat. Does that make sense?
I'm not sure a forum is like a group chat. The threads are more like a group chat and the posts are the messages. For instance, we are in the "Off Topic" forum having a chat. The chat is a thread called "What is a forum?" The messages we enter in the thread are called posts.
A forum is a place. It could be a park, a building, a room, or a particular area of a web site. On a web site the forums are usually divided into general categories like "Chess News" or "Off Topic". That helps keep threads (conversations) about the same subject category together so they don't get all jumbled up. Each person posts their messages in the thread.
So what I'm typing is a post in the "What is a forum?" thread which is in the "Off Topic" forum.
I want to know what is a forum, so I can just write random stuff.
