The Ents were my favorite part of the Tolkien Trilogy,and I like the ones I see on RIA,too.However,I agree that age does not necessarily mean wisdom,and that newbies who carry themselves with dignity deserve equal respect.

Age and longevity alone do not come with wisdom. Hopefully, the reason why a person gets to Ent status is because he/she possesses wisdom, but in many places, it's more a matter of how long they've been at a site. A newbie who conducts him/herself with dignity deserves as much respect as a veteran on a site who behaves similarly.

Unfortunately, the warrior seem to have brainwashed others into bashing this particular Ent.

Love the Ents. Ruby, Wiggum, Johnny Roulette - they're still out there, but are only rarely stirred to action.
