The correct answer would be never.

It is not a consumers job to determine if a business is viable or profitable.

As an entertainment provider these forums serve as a communication of this success or failure to the business we patronize.

It is then their job to weigh the potential gains vs. losses and make business decisions.

If people did not voice their displeasure, FFXIV ARR would not exist and FFXIV 1.0 simply would have died.

Input from displeased customers is just as valuable (if not more so) than pleased ones.
