The reason we laugh at these morons is because they're starting on the wrong level. Every major HNM shell you see today has most likely started somewhere like Sky or Limbus before jumping into the HNM camping scene. For example, Armada started out doing King Arthro, sea and sky before jumping into camping kings. I'm pretty sure WhirlingWind started in sky years ago. Same with KoN and their million incarnations. Even if the shells themselves did not start as a lower level shell, all the members had the experience and gear to be ready in the HNM scene. These guys are jumping right into the majors, and they're doing a terrible job of it. They've already wiped to darters twice. Their members have horrendous gear, and would benefit A LOT more from starting where the rest of us did at the beginning.

You can't tell me that any of these people are ready to get into HNM. Also, if you read the other thread started by these guys, they claimed they were going to be "taking over Cerberus". They were asking for people to come and trash them to be honest. The responses made would be much different if these people were experienced, well geared players that actually provided a threat to the current HNM linkshells.
