Yes, some have introduce them to new ownership on the "Just wait until this happens" comments. Poor judgement and lack of people skills. Kind of like saying "Why did you buy that model when it is changing next year?"

Open arms and comments is the best and most welcoming approach as newbies will need some guidance and input as ownership issues pop up.
