Official MooTools Forums

This is the official position. If MooTools position on forums ever  
changes (which it won't), we will update that page.

This is the official reply to all forum related questions.

Happy coding!

Seriously, sound to me that some hard core moderation is required.
I realize that lazy posters are getting everyone down, and i was
personally surprised to find several posts of the type "how do i erect
the Eifel tower" being answered while some simple posts like "having
problems with 1 line of code" not getting answered.
The mooforums were and still are a valuable asset to every mootools
developer. I think mootoolers need a joint place to share their
issues.
Shutting the forum down because of a few bad apples in my opinion is
not a very wise thing to do.
I think the forum rules should be enforced to keep the bad apples from
ruining it for everyone. If the forum admins get a rep for being rude
or inconsiderate then great, rather that than have the whole framework
suffer because of laziness.

Whereas I agree that it sucks that the old forums got shut down, that's the exact reason
http://mooforum.com was made.

It's for mootools users, by mootools users.

The devs can focus on what they do, and everyone else has a forum.

Any kind of "official" or "unofficial" is a moot issue - post there, post here, post both. I've seen some great answers and suggestions to people's code in mooforums, as well as here, which is why I keep checking both until more people go to mooforum and we let this list go the way of most google groups as being a repository of spam and porn.
