Some are. Well run forums, such as http://user.services.openoffice.org/en/forum/ quickly get 
rid of any spam and ban the posters.

It is much easier to find solutions to specific issues on a forum with multiple categories than 
by searching through a mailing list archive. Most of the support I give is not on mailing 
lists. It is on:
http://user.services.openoffice.org/en/forum/

Perhaps you should check it out instead of giving your unsubstantiated condemnation of forums.
