    The forum is only available to people who are members. It is broken up into categories, under which people can start and participate in individual discussion posts.

    The Chit Chat section is a casual section for light conversation and games.

    I'd add one caveat: Just because someone signed up for MFP, that doesn't mean they're actually using it. In other words, people can join MFP, not use the calorie counting features, and still participate here in the Community.

    There are a few participants I've known to be in that category, including a small number who are or have previously been frankly dismissive of calorie counting and those who rely on it. If they literally troll people (or directly abuse/criticize), they'll eventually be kicked out, but some level of polite-ish critique is tolerated.
