Well no, that's just not how this whole mailing list thing works. You're not some hapless victim of a vast conspiracy. If you're going to post a question to a technical mailing list you need to be prepared to: - Show your code. - Explain the overall goal behind the question. - Explain what solutions you've already tried and where you've searched for answers. Often it's even better to simply put these in the original post with the question, but even if you don't, you need to have all that stuff ready and show it when requested.
