I think it's eminently reasonable to say "if *you* want to communicate
to *me*, here's how to do it."
You appear to be taking great offence at them not accepting the means
most convenient to *you*.
Commons is not a separate project all of its own - it was started as a
service project for the other projects. So people are not going to
regard it as another place they must check for messages.
At least they're nice enough to tell you they're not reading, and that
if you want to achieve communication you may have to do something
else.

uncalled for. I don't need
to be lectured about article-writing.
The point is that you do not appear to understand the role of Commons
as a service project for the other projects.
