Ah yes, an editor who manages to devote only 6% of his edits to articles, who has apparently never felt the need to make even *one* comment on an article Talk: page, and who has 4 times as many edits to his user page as to the encyclopedia itself. Well, on the bright side, he appears to have only 26 userboxes on his user page.
Um, what are these people doing here again?
Being demonised instead of guided, it would seem. If long-established editors greet newcomers with hostility, they should hardly be surprised when this behaviour is taken as the established norm.
They haven't been demonised, nor greeted with hostility; I'm not sure where you got that from.
