That's putting it a bit harshly, but yes.
What you should do is look at the replay, and then give the OP the best advice based on what you see. If that happens to be exactly what he was asking for, perfect. If not, still give him advice about the replay, and point out that he may be asking the wrong questions about why he lost. Of course you can still answer any questions from their OP that might not have been that relevant to that particular game in addition to giving advice based on the replay.
The thing is many people don't realize why they have lost and may give a misleading description. And there is absolutely nothing wrong with that - after all that is why they are coming here asking for help. But that makes it so important that you watch their replay.
Apart from that it's a matter of respecting the work they put into making a thread and uploading their game.
