  You still don't get it, do you?

  You want an answer, but with that attitude of yours it's less likely that
you are going to get one. Insulting people who are trying to help you is
not the right way of getting answers.

  Compare it to this: Someone asks a question with a really bad English
grammar. Someone corrects his grammar errors and says that if he uses
proper English it's more likely that people will understand him and give
a proper answer. Now, two things may follow:
  1. The original poster thanks this person and learns something useful.
  2. The original poster tells this person to fuck off and mind his own
business.
  Which one of these two things is more likely to help the original poster
to get a proper answer?

  Some people might find it insulting if someone corrects their grammatical
errors. However, getting pissed off and starting insulting is not the correct
way of getting what they want.
