WFT, I think the point was that if you had done a decent search and done some reading you could have found all your answers. You can't expect the people here to answer every question again for every new user that comes along, answering it once should be enough to provide a result in a search.

Coming here and whining about "unhelpful" answers isn't winning you any friends from the helpful people here. You have to take some responsibility to educate yourself via searching and reading, and not just rely on others to do your research for you.
