Just in case you don't know, there are a lot of great moo resources for
learning:
http://www.mootorial.com/
If you just want to practice with moo (or almost any library):
http://jsfiddle.net/
And the best (imho) place to learn is: (Lots of examples here too)
http://mootools.net/docs/
And for everything else:
https://developer.mozilla.org/en/JavaScript
Hope this helps

yes moo is not for the beginners this is for sure!
Just for the record I didn't post a question that didn't get answered
I just noticed that a few went unanswered that seemed like they should
have been answered like that one from ArtRyad about the slider class,
and they few posts on mootools 2 I just asked what it was and was
ignored, and this isn't an attack on this user group by any means,
just frustrated about my learning mootools in general. :)
Thanks for hearing me
Peace

You won't get an argument from me that jQuery is used more
ubiquitously and that it's learning materials are more robust.
It's also easier to learn. You give up a few things for that
convenience though. See http://jqueryvsmootools.com for a break down.
But one of the things you trade away by adopting a more advanced
framework, a more low-level framework, is that it's harder to
learn and consequently, there are fewer people using it. Anyone
can use jQuery, but you need to know how to program to use
MooTools and other frameworks out there...

trying use backbone and it wouldn't work with moo, everything
has jQuery baked into it

well I saw a couple of un-answered questions, The thing is
whenever I chime in on a post with a question; it just
get's ignored, so when I do have a question I don't bother
to ask. I am pretty new to mootools and to be honest I
just started to learn jQuery because of the lack of good
learning material for moo. I really like mootools' syntax
it is just like Javascript, but there are very few good
learning resources for beginners in general.
I was getting the 'if you are learning go away and come
back when you know something' kind of mentality.
Thanks

Certainly it's okay. The list is pretty quiet, but I
don't think it's from lack of answers but lack of
