I have to say althogh he may not act so "experienced" when facing problems, I still like guys like David, about his passion in pursuing Linux deployment in layer offices. I still remember somebody said when David came to this ML the first time that "this guy makes this mailing list more active rather than silent as it doesn't exist at all". We need voices, if you don't like some just ignore them. Provided they are not spam of course. Greetings, On Sat, May 8, 2010 at 4:33 AM, Dave Morgan <davemorgan353@btinternet.com>wrote:

Geez. I guess it's just hard for people like David and myself, in my case a loyal Arch user for the better part of a decade, to understand the how-dare-you post a question asshole attitude that seems to have built up in the mailing lists over the past few years.
It's even worse on IRC. You don't want to go there, believe me. If you have thick skin and a lot of time you might get a helpful answer eventually but it's not for the faint hearted. --

If that is the case, the real question is why do questions not receive reasonable answers? If the reasonable answer is RTFM then fair enough, but if people simply receive aggressive replies then that's the problem.
