What if 4chan were a forum?

Well, what if?

Well, good thing it's not. There's already plenty of those out in Internet land.

It is an anonymous forum. Anyone who says otherwise is in denial.

It does fit with the definition of "forum":

    * 1. forum -- (a public meeting or assembly for open discussion)
    * 2. forum, assembly, meeting place -- (a public facility to meet for open discussion)

though, imageboard/textboard purists would still disagree with you, since most people who think of a "forum" think of forum software and a layout like vBulletin or phpBB.

Also, saying that it's "anonymous" is a bit of a misnomer, as people can post with names/trips, even though it is discouraged and anonymous posting is the norm. AFAIK, /book/ is the only world4ch/4chan board that has no name text field.

I sometimes wish it were a forum.

Oh true, I forgot about /vip/. With its forced VIPPER. Thanks for reminding me.
