Other people have answered better than I...for what it's worth, this is
actually a usenet newsgroup that gardenbanter hooks a web interface to and
calls a forum.
But, whatever works...

What a waste of effort. When people learn how to use a newsreader and have
access to tens of thousands of forums with just one specialized news reader
with a news group provider. They will learn much more than gardening or
cooking than using those clunky things called "Web Browsers".

Look at the original post, from gardenbanter.com.
(I believe they have a number of other *banter groups/fora as well).

I participate in a couple of web-based forums on the Gardenweb site
(participation made possible by "Adblock" and "Betterprivacy")
because they are local to me and the corresponding usernet newsgroups
have no meaningful traffic. However, on the whole, the experience is
not a good one because the software does not thread messages.
Increasingly, ISPs are dropping their newsreading services and making
it necessary for users to find a third party provider. Most of the
free ones of those do not provide access to binary newsgroups.

I'm accessing this NG via eternal-september's servers , but my main news
server is Teranews free . After a $3.95 setup fee , it's free, and they do
provide access to binaries - 50 Mb/day download limit , but I've only hit
that maybe 2-3 times in something like 4 years .

Its unfortunate , but people will never learn how to use newsreaders. I
barely know how, and cant set up my outlook setting right without help, then
they wont open.

And outlook dropped newsgroups last august without telling a soul. And it
tok me over a month to figure out why mine wasnt working.

A forum resolves those issues.

I use the free WinVN newsreader which I found the easiest to figure out. (Not
rocket science, anyway.)

http://science.ksc.nasa.gov/software/winvn/winvn.html

And news.eternal-september.org as my Usenet news server.

(If anyone is interested.)
