Yeah, totally unnecessary. I get it: evspra is trying to get a nice community by piggybacking on GA's work, free-riding by cherry-picking the good stuff without the investment of moderating infrastructures and anti-shill bots; you want him to know it's a cheap backstabbing thing to do. You may be right. And sending shills his way will make him realize the value GA built up over time. But GA's value will stand or fall on its own, and tanking the defector is also a cheap trick. Admit you messed up. Move on.
