A forum is where threads are posted and then others can reply to them, like livewire.

A chat room is where messages are all posted in the same place as a live dialogue. A bit like IM with loads of people.

You can chat on a forum, but it's not a chat room.

Two drops okay

A chat room is where it's all just one big conversation, where the screen doesn't change, about whatever you want to talk about.

Here it's where you can ask for help privately and click on different topics that you want to see.
