You are in the General forum.
"General discussion. If it's off-topic, or you're not sure where to put it, put it here."
I interpret this as anything can go in here including chess questions.

Hi Patrick,
Winning by checkmate with just knight or a bishop against a king is impossible.

If you post queries of this nature in help or only chess forums you are less likely to get a sarcastic answer. Although the probability is not reduced by very much.

Good luck

As I pointed out 'help' or 'only chess' would be more suitable.
However your initial reponse did not help Patrick, it just belittled him.
I was trying to help.
