"Friendly" can often be harshing on someone in a helpful manner ratehr than ignoring them. I for one would much rather be called the worst name in the universe and helped than be treated with kid gloves and continue to have the problem. I have noticed that there is a lot of harshing in the debian-* lists, but most questions get answered quickly, while I have heard in the redhat and mandrake lists, questions don't get good answers but they don't flame either. I guess you gotta pay the piper somehow, and Debian's version is flame-resistance.
