    I don't think anyone has stepped out of line.
    Indeed.

    However, that does not mean that everyone who isn't satisfied is not a brat. Generalizing either way is wrong. Similar to trolling. While having a differing opinion itself is not trolling, purposefully taking on an opposing opinion to promote a flame war is. Not all with different opinions are trolls, but not all with different opinions are not trolls.

    Then who justifies if the opinion is or isn't genuine. A troll is someone using intentional logical fallacies to get a rise out of people. Not a discerning opinion you personally feel is out to get your goat. And even then we don't need to defend our own opinions with "oh you're just-"nonsense.

    Sqare's a big enough company to handle a few dissatisfied opinions and its clear they are willing to listen. But if you don't agree, say so with some grace instead of being just as ready to fan the flames as you suspect they are trying to cause. If they are here to cause chaos, you don't want to hand it to them on a silver platter.

    Give the benefit of a doubt. Express your disagreement in a rational respectable manor as it's a win win. If they're here to cause trouble, they failed against your level headed response and if the opinion is genuine, you've instigated a decent conversation with the opportunity to expand your viewpoint against another.
