"All the Haskellers I have met seem to be quite normal, helpful"

This is the same kind of weak response you see from Rubyists whenever someone points out their community's well-documented asshole problem (eg: Steve Klabnik bringing a woman to tears by publicly ridiculing her project and offering only an insincere non-apology when called on it, any blog post ever by DHH or ZS, Felipe Contreras' tantrums on public mailing lists):

"Well, in my experience, everyone in my community is super nice and helpful, so you must be wrong."

Off the top of my head, I can easily recall several Haskellers on HN who've come across to me in the past as pricks, and on multiple occasion at that: dons, loup-vaillant, and coolsunglasses.

The Haskell community, like that of Ruby, is quickly getting the reputation it deserves.
