I absolutely dislike "web forums" and prefer email. However, StackExchange rocks! It's goal isn't to be a BBS. Instead, their goal is to accumulate the "canonical answer" to all the questions about a certain topic. Thus, duplicate questions are nixed, and topics can be "closed" once the question is answered definitively. The way they achieve this is with "game dynamics" that reward good behavior (you get "points"). It's pretty awesome.
After not using LaTeX for 10 years I found tex.stackexchange.com was full of all the answers I needed for a recent TeX project I did. The http://stackoverflow.com (programming) and http://serverfault.com (sysadmin) and http://unix.stackexchange.com/ (unix and linux) sites are great too.
