I agree.

Any forum website is too opaque and lacks permanence.  The information 
in a forum is more difficult to access and index for search engines.  
While the forum may offer better emojis and more opportunity to use 
images, that doesn't improve the quality of the information.  A forum is 
beneficial for advertising and marketing purposes, to have tracking of 
user engagement, though that may not be the intent of erlangforums.com.
