no, it is not saying nothing. Your reply to Marcus' mail (if it is in the list) 
is exactly what Marcus meant. Nobody (including me) takes the time to add 
something. A question is written quickly but at the same time you are making 
your own case easy while wasting someone elses time. 
Excuses are the wrong reaction IMHO. Writing a couple of emails and state that 
you don't have time is a contradiction. It is one that we like to oversee 
because we are lazy guys. 
So if you need an advize from me than I would suggest that while you are tired 
write it down on a piece of paper. On the next day spend some fresh time 
scanning the issue tracker and come up with something substantial being either 
a new bug entry or a concrete question.
