No, he didn't ask for "it".  He asked for help.  Perhaps not in a fashion
that makes you feel like helping him, but he certainly didn't ask to hear
your tirade about incomplete bug reports.  From your own admission, your
tone does nothing to encourage people to provide more complete bug reports, 
so why inflict it on our users and the developers that read the bugs list?
As a committer you are representing the FreeBSD Project and this is far
from the type of face we wish to show the world.  I would personally
rather have you not respond to bug reports that aggravate you than to deal
with the repercussions of your expressions of anguish.
