One word: SPAM

Nice try as billing it as a forum.
Mostly a sales site.

Actually, gatewaying into and out of USENET is, and long has been,
rather common. I'm on a couple of mailing lists that are thus
gatewayed against USENET groups, and I read several groups that are
gatewayed into mailing lists. How common it is to do this with web
based forums, I don't know -- but I do know that Google does it, and
that lots of people think of USENET as "the Google groups".

I'm confused. Whose identity did he supposedly steal?
