I have the feeling that this bashing of top posters or bottom posters or whatever netiquette you have in disregard is often just showing off your status in the community. There are studies showing that practical jokes victims (in traditional work situations) [1] are the less efficient workers than the perpetrators - this is the same online. I don't like it. I don't want to judge it neither and I don't want to request anyone to change this - but perhaps some people here are capable of this self reflection on the true source of their irritation.
