".............. When people in clubs provide instruction, they don't do it for the pay and perks. Fact is, they're on their own time, and that part of it spent helping people like you is subtracted from the time they have to fly their own models, and I can assure you that the latter is preferred. Clubs don't help newbies, individual members do. When they encounter attitudes like you have expressed, they don't. "

IMO, absolutely 101% correct.
There are simply some people in the world that have neither or either the ability to learn to be a safe RC pilot and/or the much more prevalent attitude to accept instruction to obtain that goal. Unfortunately they also do not have the insight to blame other than someone else for those deficiencies.
The proverbial: "We bought the airplane ready to go YESTERDAY, charged the batteries TWO WEEKS ago, [:-] and want to learn to fly TODAY" frequently defines the ATTITUDE.
