I'm not really involved in this, but I believe the general consensus from when the site design was being discussed was that "freeform discussion boards" were to discouraged on ATT. When compare/contrasted to TvT, I think it was pointed out the TvT Forums were felt as a negative influence on the site as a whole.
I'd have to go looking in past ATT Threads for specifics, but that is what I remember.
