I think it has more to do with a massive influx of morons who ask the same questions over and over. I too ask questions, but I quickly discovered that when I asked them in #freebsd, I often got an answer followed by a kick ban. Soon I learned that there was another channel, #freebsdhelp, where I could go for my questions. Then I learned of the mailing list, with questions@freebsd.org and so on. Then the massive web pages on FreeBSD topics and questions. www.defcon1.org, www.freebsd-howto.com, www.freebsd.org/handbook ! The content is huge. All of these simple questions are answered. One can find out the information they are seeking without annoying the rest of the BSD population.
