It wasn't a mistake. I am fully aware of the meaning of the abbreviation and I used it to express an apprehension for the attitude of the original poster who wastes my time and bandwidth with questions that are answered in widely available literature. The RTFM answer was fully deserved and justified.
In addition to that, your commanding tone is also rude so I fully intend to ignore it. I am not a teenager and you are not entitled to imperative tone of voice. You may ask me why did I respond with RTFM but you are not entitled to reproach me or give me any commands. If you persist, I can always resort to the helpful "plonk author" option of the "pan" news client. My reply to you was mildly sarcastic but it does contain one valid point: who do you think you are and who do you speak for? What makes you think that I will not respond with the gesture known as "drivers salute" to your commanding tone of voice?
