What I see happening here a lot is that people will go out of their way 
to be rude to someone with a question when it would take less effort to 
not respond to the question and let someone else answer it. If your 
response isn't going to solve the questioner's problem then why put out 
the effort to drive them away with rude non productive answers? It's far 
better to be nice to people even if they have a stupid question and even 
if it is in the manual.
