plural of forum

This is a bit pedantic but I had hoped when you updated your website you would have corrected the plural of "forum" from "forums" to "fora".

Not pedantic, but using the term "corrected" suggests that "forums" is incorrect. That's not the case:

fo·rum
–noun, plural fo·rums

Fora is also correct, but I don't believe I've ever heard it used with regard to online forums.
