Please reread that line: AO3 is not a forum.
If your forum died because of AO3, you might have been using your forum for fanfic, which forums are terrible for.
If you saw my other comment on this subject, you will know that I have had personal experience with a fanfic forum. I know they are terrible for fic because it's next to impossible to search for old chapters on them.
If your forum was healthy, your members could have posted to both the forum and AO3 - forum for fandom audience, AO3 (or FFN) for storage where a reader doesn't have to dig for old chapters.
You need to look critically at your forum and work out if it's death is because people are just bored or because it is NOT a good place to store fanfic.
But in the long run, sites come, sites go. A new site will lure Fandom away from old sites, and it is not always a good move. I still feel Fandom has been stupid for the LJ-->Tumblr move because Tumblr is very anti-communication. And I love LJ.
