forumgoers

Internet thread participants

Forumgoers are people who participate in online discussion forums—reading threads, posting replies, and engaging in debates.

The term parallels words like moviegoers and churchgoers, suggesting regular attendance rather than casual visits: Forumgoers have been discussing this rumor for weeks.

Sometimes spelled as two words.
