Rules and mods question

DukeNuke2 posted the following:

Quote:

please don't do the mods work! an infraction for the subject is already added... i'll give him some time to change the subject on his own or request a change.

The person DukeNuke2 was addressing this to was someone that was advising a poster to "Rule 11: Post questions with descriptive subjects." and to use code tags in the post.

Are we not supposed to help each other get better responses?

If someone posts a thread topic as "Help!" not many people may look at it, and it doesnt help with the web search. Are we (The users) not supposed to HELP them by explaining the rules to them so they get better responses? It sometimes takes hours for mods fix these problems.

NNSPEW(8)						      System Manager's Manual							 NNSPEW(8)

NAME

       nnspew - subject database manager (nn)

SYNOPSIS

       nnspew

DESCRIPTION

       nnspew builds a sorted database of all available subjects in the nn article database for fast access via the nngrab utility.

       nnspew should be activated regularly to rebuild the subject database, e.g. by cron.  For example:
	  2 6,9,12,15,18,21 * * *  root /bin/nice /usr/lib/nn/nnspew

       Cross  posted articles are only represented in the database once, and identical subjects in each group are merged into one to use a minimum
       of disk space.  This saves about 50% of the disk space otherwise required.

FILES

       $db/subjects   subject database

SEE ALSO

       nn(1), nngrab(1), egrep(1)

NOTES

       nngrap will use the subject database generated by nnspew independent of its age.  Thus, if you stop running nnspew, remember to remove  the
       subjects file as well.

BUGS

       nnmaster  should automatically append new articles to the subject database to keep it up-to-date, and thus require less frequent rebuilding
       using nnspew.
