No offense.. but this is probably because most skilled developers have full time paid positions. Secondly, it would have helped if you posted this in our Volunteer section instead of misrepresenting the post.
I think you're just trying to play ball in the wrong park there partner. Start speaking a language we understand and I'm sure your impression that we are rude will change. Money talks, BS walks. You didn't ask for volunteers, you posted a job with no salary.

I am speaking a language you can understand.
If I post a job with no salary, that should compute it's a volunteer position.
Volunteer work is generally reserved for non-profit organizations looking for small projects, not for the next big forum software. Programmers work for free on open source projects that they utilize and support themselves. They don't just create software for someone else to make money from. As you said,

To think anyone would work for you for nothing in return is absurd.
