Here's a comment I addressed to one with a similar attitude a couple of
years ago.
It's all about maintaining topicality -- to help ensure the usability of this forum well into the future. When the signal-to-noise ratio degrades on a newsgroup, those best equipped to answer questions -- a purely altruistic endeavor -- stop doing so. This newsgroup discusses the ISO standard C language -- certainly a large enough subject in its own right.
The other reason why it's best to post to the most specific newsgroup possible is that that's where the expertise in a given subject lies; it's a brutal form of quasi-realtime peer review, which benefits those asking questions (as any mistake made by a respondent will most certainly be corrected).
I hope this clears things up. The attempt to enforce topicality is
nothing more than an attempt to maintain the usefulness of the newsgroup
-- both to those with questions and those with answers.

the original usenet creators of this newsgroup ever published a charter.

Not everyone here has such strongly typed attitudes. Anyway it would seem
that you are a bit het up yourself and have resorted to profanity.
Here in comp.lang.c, according to my understanding we talk about ANSI
standard C. Unfortunately people do tend to questions which are C related,
but are also specific to a given implementation, or operating system. This
means that the readers here may not be able to answer the questions, and
ofcourse there are often newsgroups dedicated specifically to C, under given
operating systems and compilers.
It's hopeless to assume that this group could be used effectively for all
and any questions on C, some of which would be very irrelevant to many
people. It is then ANSI C that people hope to discuss here.
It is unfortunate, I think, that this group is not called comp.lang.ansi.c
( or similar ) but I guess in the early days there wasn't ANSI C. I would
agree that sometimes people may get over upset in some cases where, the
question isn't wholly ANSI C, or doesn't have an 'ANSI C' answer.
Example:
How does memory allocation work in C behind the scenes?
It's not really mentioned in the standard but many people could, and often
do provide likely, or at least interesting thoughts on the subject, which I
think (personally) isn't that bad or offtopic.
Rich Grise wrote: And they're so fond of saying, "According to the Charter ..." Well, Where's The Charter?
I don't know who this "they" is. You may get referred to the FAQ, but
that doesn't discuss topicality. There is no charter. This newsgroup
is one of the first established, long before the current newsgroup
naming rules, so with a different name, and long before charters for
newsgroups. It has survived and not turned into one of the many usenet
cesspools because we *do* stick to the topic of the newsgroup. It is
part of the culture of the newsgroup, which arose before people needed
legislation to decide how to behave.

I don't think that there is one

The comp.lang.c newsgroup is *not* moderated.
You can post anything you like.
The only question is whether or not anyone will respond.
The comp.lang.c newsgroup has more than its fair share
of "off-topic cops" but they are merely expressing an opinion.
They succeed only to the extent that they can persuade
other subscribers *not* to respond to articles
that they consider to be off-topic.
If you don't agree with them, please ignore them.
I believe that most subscribers to the comp.lang.c newsgroup
subscribe because they are interested in reading about
ANSI/ISO standard C but most of the contributers are well aware
that they are not "know-it-alls" who are expert
in every implementation of the C computer programming language
and that there are more appropriate forms for discussion
of extensions to ANSI/ISO C that are frequented by experts
in those implementations. Whenever possible,
we try to re-direct implementation specific questions
to a more appropriate forum.
I subscribe to gnu.gcc.help for example and sometimes
answer questions there knowing that, if I say something wrong,
I will be immediately corrected by someone who understands
the question better than I do.

Perhaps. It was more of a throwaway line related to the OPs attitude
than anything else. `Thick-skinned' may be part of it however -- but
it's also the realization that c.l.c is a great resource for learning;
some of the regulars with the most "attitude" provide the best learning
experience as well. I remember when I first learned C. I don't think I could have been placed into the category of "newbies: smart ones". I made more bugs than I did code and caused a few seg faults in the process.
Ah, but you persevered! ;-) If being "smart" meant knowing all the stuff
already, "smart" folks would never need to ask questions! This news group is an awesome resource for conversing (the best IMO), but some people here are a little too hard on the new guys. They seem to have a "holier than though" ego sometimes, like: "Why don't you know as much as me?". This isn't fair.
Well, I don't really see much of that myself, but in general the best
policy is to take the info and forget the 'tude. Of course, though, my argument does not extend to not reading the FAQ: that's a different case. I also think that (besides in some peeps signatures) the FAQ should be posted a bit more often.
Yup. Programming of any sort takes knowledge and talent, exhibiting
proper etiquette requires little of either. It is almost always those
who can't be bothered to make even a minimal effort toward the latter
that get "flamed to a crisp".
As far as FAQs are concerned, there's always http://www.faqs.org.

What do you mean by smart? I think you mean thick-skinned?

What do you expect from computer geeks and nerds.
These aren't the most sensitive, well adjusted people.
Some of them have serious emotional problems
and are prone to vent their anger an frustration
on unwary new subscribers who aren't prepared to defend themselves.
But, if you are advocating tolerance for new subscribers,
you should also be prepared to advocate understanding
for the geeks and nerds that respond to them.
Of course, though, my argument does not extend to not reading the FAQ: that's a different case. I also think that (besides in some peeps signatures) the FAQ should be posted a bit more often.
No!
The FAQ is a *HUGH* document now. It should *never* be posted.
When subscribers respond to Frequently Answered Questions (FAQs),
They should cite and quote the relevant FAQ first and only then
add commentary as required to elaborate and clarify.
Simply admonishing a new subscriber to "read the FAQ"
is seldom very helpful. People who do so are merely venting.
We would all be better off if they did *not* respond at all.
If you feel that you must respond to FAQs,
please read the FAQ yourself first and provide a URL
to the specific FAQ(s) that is(are) most relevant to the question(s).

Hmm. Ok.

Hmm (again) - I'm willing to buy into that provided "it looks
like C, smells like C, and compiles like C" on every platform
with a C compiler that complies with the ISO/IEC definition of
the C language. If it does, then it's close enough for me, too;
but if it doesn't, then it's not really C.
But all this petty sniping kind of wants to dissuade me from participating here, and I wonder how much of you piss-ants bitch-slapping the newbies has driven them away.
I confess that I had some difficulty parsing this comment. I
think you meant to query the probability that redirection or
critical response has caused newbies to seek elsewhere for the
information they wanted.
There's a high probability (approaching certainty) that this has
happened. In the case of redirection, this is a /desirable/
outcome. In other cases, it's most often the result of (perhaps
unintentional) behavior that deviates too far from the group's
established norm. The faint of heart and the disinterested /are/
easily discouraged - but it would seem inapropriate to hold the
newsgroup responsible for that lack of courage and/or interest.
And they're so fond of saying, "According to the Charter ..." Well, Where's The Charter?
I've only been subscribed to comp.lang.c for a few years; but I
don't recall ever seeing /any/ such reference to a charter. Or
were you referring to the ISO/IEC standard document? If so, this
question (and several of your comments) can be addressed by
following the link in my sig.
BTW, several of the links at that web page were provided
specifically to help newbies interact productively with this
newsgroup. Any suggestions for additions are welcome.
Participate (or not) as you choose. If you choose to participate
in this community/forum, then you'll have ample opportunity to
both give and receive help. The group norm certainly doesn't
preclude decency, propriety, dignity, or netiquette; but strict
correctness and accuracy are required (and determined by the
ISO/IEC standard).

If it looks like C, smells like C, quacks like C, compiles like C and
behaves like C on all conforming implementations (past, present and

Bitch, bitch, bitch.
Ah, it's nice to know some things never change.
Besides, terminal grumpiness is an occupational hazard of C
programming. You can't write C for years (especially in a
multi-platform environment) without becoming an anal-retentive
curmudgeon. Getting a C program to work reliably on one platform is
hard enough. Getting it to work reliably on three or more platforms
requires real effort. Dealing with the same stupid shit over and over
and over in the workplace primes one to be moody and bitchy every time
someone asks why he shouldn't use i=i++; if it gives him the right
answer on his machine.
I've been programming in C professionally for 13 years. I've seen and
made the same stupid mistakes more times than I care to count.
Getting the point across is paramount; if it can be done politely,
great, but that's not the primary consideration here.
So what if it's not "Standard C?" If it looks like C, smells like C, quacks like C, and compiles like C, it's probably close enough.
Except that "close enough" usually isn't, especially in a
multi-platform environment. There's nothing more frustrating than
getting different results on different platforms because some dipshit
figured his code was "good enough" and didn't verify that he wasn't
invoking undefined behavior or suffering from "All The World's A VAX"
Syndrome.
"Close enough" *may* work, *sometimes*, depending on the platform.
ISO Standard C *will* work, *all* the time, regardless of platform.
Since many of us here are professional C programmers, we're more
interested in the latter than the former.
*That's* why the regulars here are so bitchy. That's why questions
about things that aren't supported at the language level (networking,
graphics, sound, file system management) are referred to other
newsgroups. First of all, those other groups will have the
appropriate expertise, and secondly, those are platform questions, not
questions about the C language itself. But all this petty sniping kind of wants to dissuade me from participating here, and I wonder how much of you piss-ants bitch-slapping the newbies has driven them away.
