I don't know, I'm an open source dev too, but my time is valuable and I can't (and won't) just work for free on dozens of bug reports from a user that don't want to investigate first by themselves.

Yeah open source is great, but if you want support you have look at the code and read the damn documentation first ; I lost a lot of time just directing users to docs because they can't read.
