You're absolutely right, but I think you can let this one slip because it's the U.S. Forums under General U.S. so people can say America without saying USA.

It's apart of our culture to call our country America, so while you are in the general US section, you should respect our culture.

There is no "continent of America." There's the continent of North America and the continent of South America. "America," as it is used in the title of this thread, is shorthand for the United States of America, which is how the term is commonly used when not preceded by "North" or "South."

a continent is a large mass of land and there is no part where north and south America are separate its technically one big continent known as America. kinda like how europe and Asia is also considered Eurasia.

Just to add to that, some languages and organizations use America to refer to both continents.

However, this is an English-language forum on a website about and based in the United States. So America it is.
