IMO, the only downside is supporting legacy users who refuse to make the

I hate web forums with passion, they all suck compared to the browsing
experience most NNTP clients offer.
I can browse threads just with keyboard navigation, follow discussion
threads, mark/unmark all I have read, save discussions for posterity,
all with a standards compliant network protocol free of walled garden
data servers.
As for spam, that is what moderation is for, if ever needed.
I am a firm believer that users of web forums can only find them better
than Usenet, because they haven't experienced Usenet in its golden days.
