I agree. In fact, I guess I'm less strict than you here, because I think before we simply "eject" a hostile new member they should be told that they're doing something wrong and given the opportunity to change their behavior.
On a side note, I think your comment about greeting new members is pretty far off the mark. Why should only mods have an obligation to greet new members? If you care about the community here, you should take the time to make sure new members feel welcome.
