I agree, I used to think these one shot wonders were not really good or bad for the hobby. They want instant success and gratification and probably move from one thing to the next and end back up playing video games. But recently I think I see more guys at big fly ins and rc shows trying to fly 50cc gassers that have not paid their dues and are not safe. They take off, don't use the rudder and end up over the pits or even the spectators, especially at events with a cross wind. If you confront them they say they didn't know they had drifted that far off center line on take off! Some people are going from mastering a park flyer to big gas without developing enough skills first on the old 40 and 60 glow planes. Have yet to see a CD confront one of these guys much less ban them from the event for the rest of the day. It is ok not to know how to handle all the conditions one may encounter at the flying field or an event, it is not ok not to know that you don't know!
