And speaking of S/N, I just realized this is the “devel” reflector and not the
generic WSJT Group reflector. This really isn’t a topic suitable for the
development side, to be honest...

It never ceases to amaze me how so many hams instantly jump to the conclusion
that what they witness on the air is automatically attributed to intentional
“rudeness” or ill intent.
His s/n is not really relevant - it’s very possible that even if propagation
was, to coin a phrase, putting this person in your lap, that does not mean
you’re even a weak trace on his/her end. That person may have a very high local
noise floor due to an indoor antenna or a lot of noisy consumer electronics
around them or it could even be as simple as plain old propagation differences
or it could be someone who has just jumped into digital modes for the very
first time and is not yet familiar with the interface.
If it bothers you that much, look up their email on QRZ and send them a screen
shot and *politely* ask if they even heard/saw you. If they didn’t, offer to
help them track down local noise generators or help them optimize their receive
setup.
It pays to give people the benefit of the doubt. If they turn out to be a jerk,
then you can at least walk away with the satisfaction that you tried your best
to be an “Elmer” and are, at the end of the day, the better person.
And relax. It’s just ham radio. Nobody died on the table. This is supposed to
be fun.
