Pete - you complain that people should treat newcomers better, yet
here you are characterizing what many of us have said in a blatantly
antagonistic way. Riff-raff? We "like" that it's keeping you out?
Nobody said any such thing.
As I wrote in my other reply to Sherm:
Of course they have. I don't see any other way to read this message:

Shortly after, another poster replied for the sole purpose of
agreeing with the sentiment:

It's true, the phrase "riff-raff" wasn't actually used. But it's
the essence of what was written.
I don't know why it is you guys didn't notice those particular
statements, and I agree that they aren't representative of the bulk
of the comments. But it's not true that that sort of sentiment is
never expressed. I've seen it before, and it came up rather directly
in this thread. Not one single member of the community spoke out
against the sentiment, which only lends it more credibility.
Pete
