My personal take on this - no issues with asking for help for 
commercial/hobby/ngo/home etc.

However, the OP should show that s/he has made some effort in trying to 
help themselves.  When OP asks for step by step procedure it shows that 
s/he has made no effort at all and expects the list members to hold 
their hands.

I also suspect some of them make commitments (that they are not capable 
of delivering) to their employers/clients and land themselves into a 
soup and then we see requests for step by step procedure.
