They got rid of the forum because they were becoming troll hives like many political forums. Because of what political forums have been becoming they've been going the way of the dodo. The ones still around are normally independently run or on a rentable server space. In essence, it's both business and the shape of the forum that ended it.
It probably was bad business for Amazon because they had to tiptoe around and keep a tight rein on the posters so as not to offend customers and potential customers. Let's face it, if this forum was a retailer, they'd be bankrupt if their customers saw some of the crap posted here. lol
