I think he stopped helping when he started using phrases like 'crystal
ball' and 'wild-guess programming'. They are hostile responses.

The django-users group used to be a friendly place where people could
ask sometimes daft, sometimes difficult questions and get a useful
reply (in either case). This has been happening less and less lately.
People get responses telling them to learn how to post a question, or
just critising them for not being specific enough about what they want
to know, and this is just a bit too hostile IMO. If you think someone
hasn't provided enough information, it is helpful to ask them direct
questions that they can answer to provide a useful context (without
making them feel stupid). Often they aren't familiar with django /
python / web development, and don't really know what is required for a
useful answer to be given. It is our job to help them, not scare them
away.

One of the (many) great things about django is the community. Please
can we be friendly and helpful here instead of answering questions
with unhelpful responses?

I suspect that was unintentional :-)
