If we knew that every poster to this NG was a professional programmer, then even though RTFM is unprofessional, you could probably tenuously justify saying it. After all, career programmers should be doing some research before asking questions. But we don't know that every poster here is a pro. I'll bet quite a few are not. You might have a guy who works a shitty job who is looking to improve his marketability by learning a programming language on his own, for example. Or a parent trying to keep up with her kid's homework. Under these circumstances using the term RTFM is unhelpful.
