I view forums as the middle era of the internet.

Th early era was chatrooms, the middle era was forums, and the late era, which we are in now, is all social media.

I miss the middle era of the internet. Forums were a blast. You could really build a community with those things.

BBS predate chatrooms and are proto-forums.
