You might want to consider the perspective of the subscribers who have 
been here for years and whose ratio of answers supplied to questions 
asked is high but who nonetheless stick around in order to be a service 
to the community of (Enlgish-speaking) SuSE users.

Perhaps you can see how we'd grow weary of the panoply of faux pas that 
stream in daily.

It's the same old debate: Do you forgive all the crap and nonsense and 
let the list devolve into drivel or to you ride herd on the newbies in 
order to instruct them on the way intelligent list interactions are 
carried on? I'm in the latter camp.
