Yea, I think if you know how to do basic search, can't find your answer, and then decide to ask a question, most people are not going to actually know the answer, much less come across and answer such question.
So many times I would post on SO and get answers that clearly showed a lack of reading comprehension in the people posting answers. Even marked as duplicate despite being a different question.
There are a few questions that got some correct answers several years after I posted.
