Not as celebrities, but as chronic abusers of power and purveyors of corruption that serve to drive other editors away and contribute to the nasty atmosphere at wp.
Here are Raul654 and Moni3 tag teaming to label PumpkinSky as a sock of Rlevse Rlevse has been an enormous positive contributor to wp, whatever his human faults. Treating him this way diminishes wp.
And as someone said above, at this point many/most new editors that are able to stick it out are socks anyway, this is an exercise in vindictiveness.
This ganging up on particular editors is unseemly, merely because of a personal grudge.
