I, like David Lipman am beginning to ask myself... is offering help,
being the good samaritan if you like, worth it? Especially if this is
the response you are to expect!

well, i don't think i ever got that kind of a response but i did grow tired of the whole thing once... i took a break... of course, at the time a bunch of people had taken up the charge so i felt like taking a break was an option...

and having taken a break i got to see what it would be like without helping people... i no longer try to answer each and every request for help as there are others who can and do give satisfactory answers (in fact i rarely come across a request for help that hasn't already been answered these days), but i do have a certain amount of knowledge and a certain amount of awareness of 'noblesse oblige' so i continue...

perhaps what you need is to find a new balancing point...
