Stephen,
What you're asking for in your project is worth much more than you're proposing, in both time and cash. Many, if not most, of the professional WordPress developers on this list make their living from freelance and short-term contract work. As you might imagine, "a few hundred dollars", combined with the amount of work you're asking for, is frustrating.

Actually, wp-pro is for legitimate, paid Wordpress work by
professionals.
It's not Craig's List, where you can expect to get web design for
bargain basement prices by a kid in his Mum's basement.
From the info page: "A list for professional consultants providing
WordPress services."
If you're looking to throw "a few hundred bucks if this works" -- that
is insulting to every professional on this list.
I too am tiring of this.

I am sorry you feel this but as a professional you don't need to use this as a forum. We are all are entitled to use this service seeking professionals and if this insulting I am sorry there are plenty other ways to get work. I am not asking you to work for free. Like I said if you were looking for a free service to get work then you should allow this kind of freedom instead of complaining. People who advertise for jobs usually pay for such services or simply pay marketing people. As an artist I do things not for much money and at times I am quite happy the work is there.

What is going on with the WP-Pro list? We've had an epidemic lately of people asking for free or nearly free help. Can we get some moderation on this list? It would nice to limit this list to requests from clients who are serious.

If an offer is too low I just ignore it. If somebody wants to work for that
little money, they are welcome to go for it. No big deal.
