more structured, they will often have one topic and don’t tend to

go off on a tangent to something else and will often need a

specific software to use it

to get people post un helpful information and wasting your time unlike in a forum where people way go there to just ‘troll’

help it even though banners may be in sight the whole time you may never pay
