In the past he challenged the technical tree by attempting to shake the bugs out of it. Now, he may have unwittingly done the same to its human resources.

Instead some sysops saw this as the irresponsible actions of a newbie, and went straight into panic mode. There is nothing wrong with looking at a newbie's contributions more carefully than you would at those of a known contributor, but the yardstick that you apply in evaluating those contributions must remain the same one.

I didn't see much recrimination, just action.
