While self-admittedly grumpy, I believe John was trying to encourage
better posting behavior from Joshua which will benefit him by
receiving more answers. If John had remained silent (as I'm sure
others who share his sentiment have), being (apparently) new, Joshua
probably wouldn't know he's potentially limiting the number of
answers he'd receive. Perhaps John could have phrased his email
differently, but I think he was trying to help Joshua.
