In my opinion, Forums tend to have lots of questions but far fewer answers. When googling for the answer to a problem, I usually find it in news groups or mailing list archives, sometimes on individual web pages and rarely in forums.
I swear this is my last message in this thread. Said this:

you have missed again the point, which is to save time. Communication must be fast and effective. If the majority of people who know the answers (ie have managed to become expert) also prefer mailing lists it is quite likely that the two things are related.
