Brief history of a forum

What began in ancient times as a place where people gathered to sell goods and hold discussion has now moved to the Internet. With the first internet forums emerging in the 1990s, a lot of people soon got together to discuss their day or share knowledge about a particular hobby or passion.

Features of a forum

In almost every forum you will still find the “daily discussion thread†or a coffee corner. This is a place where you do not have to be on topic and can always talk about random topics and create threads freely. A forum has moderators who make sure that discussions do not get out of hand and that no content is posted that does not belong there. You, as the forum starter, are of course the administrator of your forum.
