Definitely agree with that but for possibly different reasons.

I do not like mailing lists for various reasons, They were ok for say the old UK academic JANET mailing lists.
These days, with top posting, no editing of posts, nested quotations in random order. You must have seen a top posted 'thanks' followed by a page of quotes.
When it comes to GimpUsers, I only reply to unapproved posts, ie. only to GimpUsers forum members.
I just wonder how they get there in the first place, there are better and more user friendly forums.

Answering my own question. Just now a google search with the term 'Gimp forums' produced this.
gimpforums.com I can understand this just from the search term, shame that google points to a dead site.
http://www.gimpusers.com/forums OK, that is how the new forum members get there.
gimp-forum.net <<< should be going there
http://www.gimptalk.com <<< but not there
gimpchat.com <<< down the list a bit
