The primary purpose of EFNet #FreeBSD is to discuss the FreeBSD operating system. Many IRC users join the channel asking very simple questions which can be answered by simply reading man pages or by visiting www.FreeBSD.org. Although we do drift off topic occasionally, this channel should not be relied on for technical support issues. You'll have better luck joining #unixhelp, #freebsdhelp, etc. As far as me being the "resident asshole", sure, it may seem that way at times. However, you must also consider the fact that most users prefer the enviroment to be oriented towards operating system discussion, and not technical support issues. Since there is a low channel operator to user ratio, and I am one of the most active operators in the channel, I may seem like a "resident asshole". I hope response clears up any issues you don't comprehend.
