Likewise. I think most of us try to be polite about it.
That said, I am making a list of those calls that I will be to work next
year.
The list will be everyone that bitches about every little niggling thing
that happens during a contest. It will be a long list I am afraid. But
since they wasted our time reading their emails, I figure a few seconds
during a contest can't hurt, right? :-)

My CQ WW policy is to work zones 3, 4 and 5 by Canadian QSOs if possible.
That leaves one USA contact per band and I do that toward the end of the
contest and not during EU or JA openings. I'll call someone who's not
getting any answers to their CQs. I listen a bit first to make sure of that.
I do a lot of single band entries, so this brings it down to one QSO per
contest.
Following these rules, I work K1LZ every once in a while.

While nobody likes the 0 pointers, they are a necessary evil.
What isn't necessary is calling fellow stateside stations during the
maximum rate hours, i.e., when the band is open to Europe.
