I think on the forums there is that time factor, the fact that you can think about and edit your words and also the forums are a little safer with moderators around. I do know that some people can find chat triggering. I spend most of my free time on the forums but occasionally I'll go in chat and say hello, it can be a real good experience. But you know, what ever floats your boat is just fine, enjoy the forums any way you can!
