I think one or more of them pissed in his chips at some point because he seems to get a hard on whenever they do something wrong.
He's also known to hassle and harass plenty of YF (including myself) constantly on Twitter over the stupidest things.
So while there is no doubt a perception of elitism out there amongst some, anything bobobalde says should be taken with a grain of salt.
There has been some very constructive discussion gone on in this thread, we should keep that up. I'm feeling positive about things moving forward despite the odd mishap.
