It's never enough

I am sometimes asked why I upload solutions and stuff, even for courses I’m not a TA for. I don’t have to do that, even for the course I am a TA for.
Well, it’s because I find it nice. I sometimes get appreciated for it, which I like. But even if I’m not explicitly thanked, I still find happiness in knowing that someone is probably helped by it.

However, there are some, for whom it’s never enough. So, not only is it not enough that they’re getting solutions/notes for free, they want more. This is something that irks me a lot. As an example, from this page, I got

“Bhai update kr na, or tutorial k solm bhi daal de, exam aa gaye”

in the form. (“Bro update it no, and put tutorial solutions as well, exams have come.”)

This is one example of many similar such requests.
There are also people who complain about all tutorial solutions being in one PDF because it’s much scrolling.
So, not only are they getting solutions from me (which wasn’t obligated), they are going to complain about something like scrolling on top of it.
Sigh.
