Shameful
This user was a very fine, upcoming editor of considerable promise, who, perhaps because of those qualities was mercilessly harassed, victimized, and driven to make one unguarded remark out of pure frustration, and fear that his block would inconvenience his fellow workers. He did little that could, in any human society, be considered troublesome. He did much to encourage disenchanted editors to renew their confidence in wikipedia as a project.
