Thread: Forums or Fora

    Forums, it just makes more sense.

    Look, spell-check doesn't even recognise fora! Therefore, it is forums.

    Enlighten me like I've never been enlightened before!
    Praytell what is the mighty use of the word "forums?"

    Boldly go.

    I usually say forums. But fora sounds cooler, I must admit.

    Forums. I don't think I've ever heard someone refer to it as Fora.

    Many thanks Christmas!

    Forums, but it just occurred to me as I was gazing at the title on my web browser window -- It's Eyes on Final Fantasy Forums, so it should be EoFFF. As opposed to the commonly used EoFF.

    We have been living a lie. All these years. EoFFF. The extra F...the forgotten child.
    This subliminal message could be meant for YOU. But it's probably not. Move along ;D

    I didn't actually know that. Gee, I'm illiterate now. Still, since nobody uses 'fora' I don't want to sound like a goon. How could you use that word in conversation?

    "Which fora are you registered on?"

    "Wha' wha'!?"

    The forgotten child is always the middle child, so we all must be browsing the Eyes on Final Forums.
