Hello Chobin,
The problem you will encounter as previously stated is that few of us
here see a need or benefit of another forum.
It creates extra work and effort for the community to track multiple
forums. It is challenging enough for many of us here to keep up with the
Squeak list. Each of us at various times and days get busy and are
challenged to keep up. Some days the list volume exceeds that days
ability to keep up.
There are a variety of factors as to why an email doesn't get answered.
It is highly unlikely an email doesn't get answered because it is too
simple. This a very friendly community. About the only time you will see
any terseness or any passionate behaviour is in a family (Squeak family)
discussion. Almost never to simple questions by newbies.
If an email goes unanswered that you still truly seek an answer for,
please post it again. It is quite possibly it was simply overlooked in a
very busy period. You need to understand that most of the answers and
volume on this list (like any other) is generated by a relatively modest
few people out of all the subscribers.
Any way, your chances and opportunities of getting help are greatly
better here on Squeak-dev with ~1350 members than on a forum with 2.
Please continue to use this list. We don't bite. :)
At least not all of us. And at least not most of the time. :)
All the best.
