I think you've misunderstood how opensource assistance works. We do this
in our spare time. We do not do it as a full-time job, babysitting people
who won't read the documentation or are unable to use google to find a
suitable answer before asking us.

If you ask a proper question about a specific problem and show us that
you've spent a bit of effort trying to understand and solve the problem
yourself, we'd be more than willing to help. As it is now, the answer
wouldn't mean anything to you, and you'd need assistance again in a
very short while when, for example, you're having trouble getting
notifications to where they should go.

Considering the successes of the wars on alcohol, poverty, drugs and
terror, I think we should give some serious thought to declaring war
on peace.
