Then you chose the wrong list.
As the web pages point out, this list is for technical discussion. It's
not somewhere you go to find out what the community is like. There's
already too much noise on this list, and all this is doing is contributing
to it.
If you want to find out what the community is like then subscribe to
-chat, and read and post, or subscribe to -questions, and just read.
You'll get a much better idea that way.

Post technical content to a technical mailing list and expect to be treated
with respect. Post ill advised non technical content and expect to be
treated like an idiot.
As I say, feel free to join -chat to see how the FreeBSD community behaves.
