Apparently there are some misgivings in the Arch
community about the existence of ArchBang. Basically that section
of the community feels ArchBang might attract a more Ubuntu-like
crowd of users that is not willing to learn and configure their
system the way you would have to do with Arch Linux, people looking
for the easy way in. People on the Arch Linux forum professing to
run ArchBang are, apparently, directed to go away and use the
appropriate forum.

I can’t say that I would absolutely disagree with this approach
because ArchBang is a different project and has its own
infrastructure and forums.
