   1. If you start with a greeting, or asking if anyone is there, chances are very good that you'll be completely ignored.  You might interpret this as rudeness, but that is not the intent.  Most of the residents of the channel are busy people, and may not even see your question at all because they aren't actually looking at the IRC program on their computer.  It takes time to respond to greetings or requests that have nothing to do with the technical nature of the channel, so most of them simply won't respond.
   1. Once you DO ask a technical question that's relevant to the channel, it may be hours before someone with the knowledge to respond will actually see your question.  People who do not know the answer will usually ignore the question, and may even carry on other conversations as if you never asked your question.  This will seem rude to an IRC newcomer, but consider this:  Those people actually think it would be MORE rude if they were to respond to a discussion where they cannot offer anything useful.

That page also links to ESR's [[http://www.catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html|How to Ask Questions the Smart Way]].  The IRC etiquette page says that ESR's book insults the reader.  I have to agree with that assessment, but if you read the whole thing (it's very long) it's a perfect way to understand how open source communities actually work.
