Not a strange reaction when the OP lists some of the most common complaints in the forum and then somewhat dismisses them (to OP, not even accusing that it was on purpose, it's just very easy to read it that way). I guarantee you that the response to this thread would be extremely different if it looked like it wasn't made in retaliation to negative posts.

Two positive threads off the top of my head that have been very well-received were the "What do you guys do for fun" one that was posted recently (https://forum.square-enix.com/ffxiv/threads/483942), and the "Positive Feedback" one posted soon after 6.4's launch (https://forum.square-enix.com/ffxiv/threads/482641), and both of them were just that. Regular topics with non-inflammatory opening posts. I struggle to think of a more vocal critic than Stormpeaks, for example, and they left positive feedback in both.
