I used to be a member of the Mac user group here in Seattle. Every Saturday morning, they hold a "Cafe" where users can get together for coffee and doughnuts, talk about Macs and people can bring in their machines and someone would help them install some software or debug a problem. I stopped going to these meetings because I myself never had time to socialize, people would want this or that installed. One time, a women who was being helped by another member castigated someone who dared ask a question of this guy while he was waiting for her hour-long software install to complete. "He's helping me!", she snapped. You have to remember that people on this group (or any other group for that matter) are here because they choose to be, not because they are paid or are forced to. There may be reasons that people do not answer your question, they may be offline for a period of time, you posted your question on a Friday, and here it is Monday, quite a few people have lives on the weekend away from the internet. Maybe noone is sure of an answer or they just simply decide not to help for whatever reason. Pleading, or multiple posts for help don't engender sympathetic attitudes. Like an animal stuck in a tarpit, people may be inclined to just walk on by. You mention that some people have alluded to having an answer, in that case, perhaps an email to that person would be in order.
