I don't agree with some of your assumptions,for example :

1) to send a screenshot is most of the time more informative than copy and
paste text,because it contains more information. To describe complicated
situations using only words takes a LOT of time,sometimes. Especially for
the newbies,that aren't so skilled and they may have some difficulty in
including or not some information. And even for the lack of a technical
language.

2) From my experience, going to irc to ask for help can be a problem for
the time zone. Every time I tried to go to an IRC channel,I've always found
bots and not talking users.

3) The rejection of emails happens even if I don't attach any screenshots
(a thing that I do rarely),and my messages are also rejected because when I
hit reply also all the story is attached. I think that it's important to
attach the story  because it may contains important details that could be
missed
