The first post is a fine example of arrogance or ignorance

... which in my opinion would either ...
fall under the rules...
1.1 No "Flaming": Please do not post any messages that harrass, insult, belittle, threaten or flame another member or guest.

1.2 No "Trolling": Please do not post any topic that disrupts the peace and harmony of this board. Don't create meaningless threads with the sole purpose of starting a dispute.

Or

Give the benifit of the doubt and assume that the poster had no idea that everything at this site has been provided from the goodness of the hearts by fellow members at no cost, and that there are better ways to go about receiving help.

I would suggest, perhaps at the top of the site rules page to write an introductory explanation about this site, making it clearer to those who don't know, with some how to tips.

Then if this flavor of post were to surface again mods or members could respond with the link and be done with it.

Nonetheless I will err on the side of the latter with slyfox as he's a newbie to the site.
