I've been quiet until now. I have been using FreeBSD for a couple years now
and use it in a professional setting. The times I have had to go research
concepts I didnt fully grasp, or try to implement something I didn't quite
understand I always found the answers in the documentation. If for some
reason the documentation was not helpful I would go email some people I have
met over the years or join one of the many FreeBSD IRC support channels.
These people have always been helpful and even polite. Sure there are the
few exceptions, but that is normal for any group of people anywhere. There
are always the few bad apples. And there is a big difference between being
rude and unhelpful and trying to spark some independant thought.
