As has been discussed ad nauseum in other places, I am *not* wrong. We are
talking about *Usenet* convention and not dictionary definition.

Usenet is a platform where groups are hosted in multiple locations using
nntp format. Forums are web based, hosted in a single location using http
access.

*That* is the definition I apply and the only one I recognise.

Take it or leave it, I do not propose to discuss it further here, it has
already been done to death elsewhere.
