Chatrooms don't archive posts and don't end up as large repositories of information. Its much harder to build up a sense of community in a chatroom, since theres no way for you to tell what was going on even 3 seconds before yu logged in. YOu have to be online at the same time as the people you are talking to, they have less customization of avatars and so on, and they become largely useless once they breach about a dozen users at a time.
Forums are WAY better than chatrooms.
