Someone, I forget exactly who, once posted that the chatrooms and message boards are different because of their "staying power". If you write something on the boards it is there for everyone to see as long as it stays posted. When you write something in the chatrooms it is ephemeral and fulfills the instant gratification need that so many possess. The chatrooms tend to act along the lines of "Wham bam, thank you m'aam," while we usually put a bit more thought and dedication into what we post.
