Actually, it's either. The fora vs forums debate has gone on for a while and after research, either format can be used.

Where it gets interesting is how to refer to Tenths. Tenths is a forum made up of multiple forums (or fora).

For some, it is better to remain silent, rather than open their mouths and prove beyond doubt that they should not open their mouths in the first place.

I suspect my excuses are shared by others: family life, work, lack of work (freelance worries) and perhaps a bit of specifically making an effort not to spend too much time in front of a computer when the time should be spent dealing with responsibilities. Before finding 10/10ths, I had never really done much on the internet, so the novelty of sharing interests and the often very funny sense of humours here was a factor, but all in all, its more of a time thing now.

I joined recently, because a passing interest in 70s/80s super saloons led me here. There's a whole thread full of photos, and it seemed that attachments to a post can't be downloaded unless you register. So I suspect that's one reason many people register and then never return.

Actually we get a lot of people that register and then "lurk", it's getting people to actually talk that's the problem

And then getting some of them to shut up is also a problem

Yes, indeed, and quite rightly too. To give people grief for trying to communicate in a foreign language is a terrible thing (except if it is constructive and wanted).

Absolutely...it takes a few seconds to find the solution to that one!

It is much like the situation regarding podia/podiums.

I would say that when you refer to Ten-Tenths you are refering to the website as a whole, which means it is more than a collection of forums.

I guess, if you wanted to add another layer, you could bring Royalridge Computing into it.
