In all fairness though, threads are hard.

Agreed. But I'm referring to the simpler end where you just need to post to the GUI thread without having to worry about synchronization, signaling etc.

And that's just an example. My point is that people don't put any effort in and just demand answers which they get (reputation++) which doesn't really help them beyond their immediate need and actively degrades the quality of the Q&As. There's little of interest in there for experienced developers, reputation aside, and it wasn't always like that.
Regards,
Rob Philpott.
