Also, if people know that you are a member, then they will approach you, no matter when. You don't want to be bothered at certain times, but they don't know that if they don't really know you. If anything, I would think that it would be a bit flattering when people run you down to ask questions. They see something in you that they want to be like.

Understood. Flattering or not, I still will hold that people should adhere to the principles of common sense, professionalism, and common courtesy.
Politely asking, "Is this a good time to talk?" is never a bad idea. And I know I don't have the entertain the questions, but it's not about the questions. It's about the circumstances surrounding the questions.
