    Forum or Forums

    I am about to get myself a personal domain but can't decide whether to have "forum" or "forums" as part of the domain.


    I've added a poll. Please do me a favor and tell me which you would choose and why.

        Forums!

        Each section you have is a forum. Main Forum, Hack Forum, Art Forum, Beer Forum... whatever.

        One board usually consists of multiple forums.

        Having said that I just call mine 'bb' (short for Bulletin Board).

                Forum - A public meeting place for open discussion.

                And thats what our boards are. There's only one. So it's forum.

                  Works the other way, too:
                  I have multiple boards on my forum.

                            Register both, then point the forums domain to the correct domain.

                            BTW, why not fora?

                              Forums, but it's up to you. Either way works.
