I went to post an issue with jquery-migrate, and this popped up:
It looks like this is your first time opening an issue in this project!
Be sure to review the contributing guidelines.

Ok.... then it tells me

**How to Report Bugs
Make sure it is a jQuery bug
Many bugs reported to our bug tracker are actually bugs in user code, not in jQuery code. Keep in mind that just because your code throws an error and the console points to a line number inside of jQuery, this does not mean the bug is a jQuery bug; more often than not, these errors result from providing incorrect arguments when calling a jQuery function.

If you are new to jQuery, it is usually a much better idea to ask for help first in the Using jQuery Forum or the jQuery IRC channel. You will get much quicker support, and you will help avoid tying up the jQuery team with invalid bug reports. These same resources can also be useful if you want to confirm that your bug is indeed a bug in jQuery before filing any tickets.**

But when I go to http://forum.jquery.com/using-jquery it absolutely will not let me sign in, sign up, even after creating a Zoho account. But then before login it does show some previous posts, and they are ALL over a year old.

I've spent 2 hours trying to get to the forum to avoid posting a time wasting jquery-migrate issue I am having..

Thanks for the report. We should update that CONTRIBUTUNG file as jQuery Forums are read-only now. We should direct users to Stack Overflow or GitHub Discussions.

And thanks for actually reading the linked documents! The fact that we’re only hearing about obsolete links there now indicates not many people read those files…
