I'm simply sick of the complaints and no, they are not always constructive.
Some are, perhaps more of them on the RPC forums than in other places, but I simply don't see it as constructive when it's performance-related and we all knew beforehand that the game would be very demanding.
While I do feel some regret in that my tone might be perceived as aggressive, I feel the same aggression coming from people who seem to expel their frustrations through negative criticism so I can't honestly say I'm sorry for taking the same tone. What my honesty allows me to do however is apologizing for said tone making my posts not so enjoyable to read. So, I'm sorry. I hope however that people would realize that incessant whining is also very much not enjoyable to read.
And please don't give me the "you don't have to read it" argument, because I do have to read it in order to realize what it's about. Of course the thread title might have given a hint, but do impressions have to be negative? No, they do not. In fact I'm happy to have seen a lot of positive comments on the RPC forums in general, but when the negativity trickles in, it makes me want to scream. Really, if it is bad enough that you only have negative comments, don't play it. I stopped playing WoW for that reason. Loved it for a while, then I realized I had more negative stuff than positive stuff to say about it, so I quit.
