Personally, I prefer mailing lists, but I noticed the Forums traffic is order of magnitude larger than the traffic on the lists.
In principle, I prefer mailing lists. They are not so nice, however, when searching for information on the web, given what the various sites that harvest the content of mailing lists do to it.
The site: trick [1] has worked for me quite well for long time: "T400 site:http://mailman.archlinux.org/pipermail/arch-general/" Jeremiah's pointed on two front-ends to the same data, best option I know too. It is not ideal in though, so it is not a problem to setup ML mirror on Gmane. Similarly, Nabble works fairly well as a Forum frontend to ML.
