No its not so serious as you make it out to be. I don't mean to discriminate on basis of age, but User:Abhijay claims to be a 16 year old user from South East Asia; and I don't know, we can probably expect WP:DIVA to be more prevalent among teenagers? (again, not discriminating; I'm one myself!). So lets cool down a bit and not get into a frenzy. Besides, he was facing an interaction ban with another editor and all that, and for all we know, was probably under a lot of stress. Situations like these aren't uncommon on enwiki, and there have been many times when users have returned back, stronger and better. Give them have some time to cool off.
I don't know why Pradeep decided to retire, and I do not intend to pry. I agree with Srikeit's opinions and observations; I hope Pradeep's retirement will only be temporary.
