The sad thing is that it's not even damage control, it causes damage. When it comes to unhappy customers, 9 out of 10 decide the game isn't for them and silently leave and a small number care enough to actually complain and offer feedback. By stifling that feedback, the community pushes away the few complainers and also ensures the silent leavers never have a reason to return either.

It happened a lot in WoW. Their community positivity brigade was convinced everything was fine and for a good while it was on the surface. Then their playerbase halved and it was still "fine, it's an old game dude, this is normal, MMO's aren't as popular, game is great", then it halved again while they stopped publishing numbers and now they're barely at a quarter of their original. But it's still "fine".
