Good point buddy. Thats the kind of attitude that gets under my crawl in some certain thread(s). The very few that try and keep out the many. What they need to do is be representatives of the sport and foster the fever; just as Kal says. Then if they wanna "step up" to the next new competitior that gets a shot because of a strong qualifier then they can do it.
