I'm normally inticed by the questions title first. If I have any knowledge/personal experience/opinion on it then I usually happily tap away at a response regardless of who has posted it.
If I see a newbie I am usually a little more cautions, but will happily reply if the question seems genuine, and welcome them onboard.
If it's a Russian I ignore it, and I'm also going to try and refrain from answering Cas23's questions based on her "don't you wish your girlfriend was HOT like me" comments today.
This site has helped me with lots of issues, and i'd like to think I have helped others out too, regardless of who they are, we all need a little help/advice at times, it's nice to know this site lets us do that, and normally isn't spoilt by ignorant posters.
And of course it is sometimes nice to chuckle a Wardy post..... always telling it like it is.
