I don't know why people say it feels like a web chat. If you have to refresh to see new posts, it won't feel like a web chat. It doesn't feel that way any more than /b/ did that day when a bunch of Shana fans were posting at the same time. G1ade (talk) 08:03, 14 May 2022 (EDT)

There are chat programs where you need to refresh to see new posts.. Or imageboard softwares where you don't need to. If you had auto update thing enabled on /b/, you wouldn't need to refresh to see new posts for example. I personally think creation of the word "chat" was a mistake, as what we call "forum" and "chat" are fundamentally the same thing with different looks --Kaguya (talk) 08:16, 14 May 2022 (EDT)

What Kaguya said, but also: Compared with the likes of Usenet/Netnews and WWWBoard, web-based Japanese bulletin boards were extremely chat-like (especially the single-line ones like what Ayashii World started out on) - in fact, they are basically just WWWBoard with a WebChat layout at their core! And when I say WebChat, I mean like WBS (WebChat Broadcasting System) and similar, which were hugely popular in the mid-90s:
