Something I believe is overlooked that is relevant here is the effect of large volumes of feedback, even positive. Sara Chipps wrote about it in her blog post on Stack Overflow[1].
I don't believe we as people are desgined to handle feedback and opinions from a large number of people, and it's very easy for even neutral or benign questions ("is this planned for a release?", "any news on this?") to become grating.
Kinda similar to when kids go "Mom, mom, mom, mom" - nothing harmful is being said, but the cumulative effect is exhausting.
IMO it's a good idea to question, has someone else asked this? has someone else already stated this opinion? before posting on forums.
