i do not know about "official" support but polite support definitely. I
think there are two problems, user who think they can bully a volunteer
and trolls acting as if they were a volunteer. Most of the regulars
recognize each others email addresses and respect the other regulars. I
have notice most of the regulars are actually very knowledgeable, much
better than most paid support - we are all users. The users asking a
question should be given a polite and accurate answer(s) to their
question. I hope I do this. Now trolls, I do not know how we can stop
them totally.
