Mostly, I don't have the time to talk to these people. I am busy enough as it is (when I am logged on). Why should I take time out to talk to everyone that logs on and claims to be an admin/whatever elsewhere? Plus the fact that I am rarely ever even visible to players anyway :) Mostly if I do end up putting someone in the fluffy domain or talking to someone about a specific thing it will be because someone else has recomended this to me and already done all the preliminary checking. Unseen! Unseen!
