 The "If you ask advice, you'll get polite versions of 'RTFM' mostly." may 
very well come from the #freebsd irc channel, on freenode.net. I have gone in 
there once or twice and witnessed  really rude behavior. #freebsd is an 
excellent reason not to use FreeBSD. I would not dare ask a question there; I 
think it's run by professional (l337) sysadmin guys who are into sadism.
