First, let's keep in mind that I am also in favor of completely ignoring
help vampires, including Nikos. I agree with Vladimir that we should
just ignore him.
The posts I was thinking of started with Daniel Stojanov:
"I just signed up the this mailing list. To the regulars, is this
what normally happens on this list?"

and the next day, Ravi Sahni said in response:
"Lurker here: I too was wondering whether I have got into the wrong
place"

When people walk through the door, we should speak well to them. If
they are trouble, we should deal with them without it turning into a
negative storm. Remember that there are people looking in the windows
trying to decide whether to come through the door.
