So the Developers forum is for the developers who pay $99 and the Apple Support Communities is for the free users (is this correct). By the way what gets a paying developers more according to the free users?

Aside from any other benefits of the paid developer programs, the Developer forums are focused solely on developers. This forums is just one little out-of-the-way corner of a much larger, more consumer oriented discussion site. Questions asked in the Developer forums are typically more difficult and may take several days to get an answer. Questions here are more beginner-type questions and you will get an answer much more quickly. The Developer forums are mostly populated by professional developers who have a much different perspective than you get on most other public internet forums. If you don't know what I'm talking about then you probably wouldn't believe me anyway.
