You ask for /, forum, then one-or-no slash.

The second "f" in "forumfoobar" is one-or-no slash. (Specifically,
it is no slash). So it matches.
You want to ask for /, forum, then either a slash or end-of-string.
location ~* ^/(forum|forums|board)(/|$) {
(You could also abbreviate forum|forums to forums?, should you so choose.)
Good luck,
