worse offender is asking

  hi, can someone help me?

in a public channel. I am seeing such requests and ask myself "Do I reply? Will I be able to help? How long this will take/Do I have time?". So please don't do that either

But these are incredibly important. For every person who's a "I'd have gotten back to you if I had", theres a "If I haven't gotten back, please reach out, it's off my radar." person.
