You'll never get flamed. Not even on high tech Linux lists..
I've seen way to much questions which one could have answered easy by using google, alltheweb or norhernlight. And within less time then to way for an answer coming from a list.
I consider it a good thing to tell ppl to STFW/RTFM: Don't feed them but learn them how to catch fish by themselves.
Sometimes you just can't find a solution.. or you need to verify something.. then a list can be a great resource.

Below is a quote from a another list that I subscribe too describing this list.....you guys and gals aren't that bad....I don't know about you all but I don't wear a cup just a saucer....
But......heed the warning. Do not post questions that you could/should have been able to answer yourself. Responses can be very humiliating if, for instance, you ask a question about something that is in the archives, or is very basic to messaging. It may be one of the most valuable lists, but wear a cup if you plan on posting questions.
