I respectfully disagree. You may feel like you can't help anymore than you have, but that doesn't give you the right to tell other people to be quiet.

It is not telling people to be quiet, it is telling people 'Yes, we get it. Can we move on to the action items, please.'
It is like being pulled into meeting after meeting where the same problems are discussed -- and most of the discussion is about how such and such is a problem and a problem worth solving even after we've all decided 'Yes, this is a problem and yes, it is worth solving.'. Now is that point in the meeting where we discuss solutions. Beyond even that, it is time to hear about what people have done and how it has worked out for them to help other people and organizations along on their journey.
