I think the most annoying thing of all is poking fun as someone on a public
forum when all they want is a little guidance. Everyone here has the
beautify key on their keyboard called "delete", don't get annoyed at someone
who needs help. Just offer what you can or delete. And in case you haven't
noticed, this list is billed as the "support" list for Tomcat, going to it
when you have a problem and need help solving it seems reasonable to me,
regardless of how much money you get paid.

It's even more of a problem for me when I
think, rightly or wrongly, I dunno, that
this person is probably being paid a salary
or a consultant's fee of perhaps $200 a day
or more to complete a task for his/her company
and must resort to a mail list to complete that
task. I think things like "I'm glad I'm not
involved" and sorry for that company and stuff
like that.
