Are Forums "Social Media" Sites?

Hi,

Before reading on, would you consider forums "social media?"
This is the question that is posed on a High Rankings Forum post.

Many people find that the answer varies. Forums, after all, are inherently social -- they bring people together on common ground. But others disagree. Forums are not "social media" because they don't like the negative connotations of social media.

Please help.

Thanks!



I didn't find the right solution from the Internet.
