Hi Raymond, this is probably the most frequent complaint in all 
newsgroups ever, but still I'd like to point out a few things:

1. Where have I been rude? Did I insult Amir in any way, made any 
negative statements?
2. Was my answer helpful in finding the answer Amir was looking for? I 
expect so, but one cannot be sure.
3. The TYPO3 lists are probably the nicests and most polite lists I have 
ever used, at least the nicest that actually have content worth reading.

4. I'm sorry for the non-answers, but: Where the rude answers helpful, 
if yes why do you complain.
5. Mind you, I could not care less whether you or anyone else is using 
TYPO3. This is a frequent misconception of these newsgroups: We are not 
commercial support, we are not selling TYPO3 to anyone. And I am not 
willing to help people who prefer asking to looking for a solution 
themselves.

6. One might argue about the structure but not about the amount of 
documentation available.

We do that every day, but the best help is to show people how to help 
themselves.

Greetings,
Michael

PS: As a sidenote, and nothing personal, but in all the discussions 
about giving nice and detailed and correct answers in newsgroups, those 
who complain are always asking and rarely answering. I see you have not 
answered one single request as long as my archives go back (2003).
