Your point might be valid if I had disparaged some one. Instead,
you call BetacommandBot a noob. Sigh.
Actually, I didn't mention any user names, not least because I was
commenting on a general attitude, and also because the specific users
and bots could easily change between the time I send the message and the
time anybody reads it. It's your own (incorrect) assumption that I was
thinking of Betacommand.
