    if you want to start your forum on commercial basis then i would suggest you to use it as a subdomain because it will separate your forum from your website , as on dp
    otherwise it should be xy.com/forum , if you want to use it to satify your customers

    I would go for domain.com/forums it is better SEO wise. And easier to type.

    Most of the forums that I see on the net seem to go by forums.domainname.com. The ultimate decision is yours.
