He's talking about an NNTP newsgroup, not web forums.
Hmm ... what is nntp://forums.novell.com/ and each and every of web forums in list has nntp interface.
Web-forums are an obstacle to communication.
For you Aaron is obstacle. Sometimes you miss IMHO, ie. what is good for your use case is not the best in every case. People that don't follow 50 mail and news groups have no problem with page refresh, have no problem to find the place where they asked the question. New users are actually really lucky to have some form of communication that: - need no setup besides login that they are already familiar with, - has no 200 messages a day, where noise is the largest part of them - has strict moderators with ability to delete OT messages keeping forums clean. You can go and see for yourself using your preferred nntp client. The server is support-forums.novell.com.
