I usually use unicorns ironically.

But we really should not be generous towards disruptive automatisms.

You're absolutely right.

I remember the good-old days moderating black hat forums, when the new guys come full of arrogance as if they finished learning the field 3 times, and they are repeating to finish it with us the 4th time... duh !

The only way that works with this kind of people is to report the destructive behavior (like spreading infected files), and keep pushing good content to let them know how good content should be like.
