Take a look at http://www.lemis.com/questions.html, which has also been broadcast to this list 3 times in the last 3 weeks. In particular: 1. Remember that nobody gets paid for answering a FreeBSD question. They do it of their own free will. You can influence this free will positively by submitting a well-formulated question supplying as much relevant information as possible. You can influence this free will negatively by submitting an incomplete, illegible, or rude question. It's perfectly possible to send a message to FreeBSD-questions and not get an answer even if you follow these rules. It's much more possible to not get an answer if you don't. I can't recall your questions. Maybe they were badly formulated or indicated (for example, instead of a subject line like ``Is AFS supported?'', you might have written ``WHY ?''). In this case, I might have deleted the message without reading it. I'd recommend you read the rest of the web page.
