[quote]Prove it. That's just one possible interpretation of what 'these forums' means. It also happens to be the interpretation your entire argument is based on.[/quote] referring to a specific thing or situation just mentioned. Definition of this(in case you didn't know these are a plural of this), used as a pronoun.
