The topic had subtly changed from "Growing the Market" to "Them Damn
Complainers!" I was just supporting my line of argument against the
rising tide of "Who cares about the people screaming 'We won't buy
it!'"  comments.

Perhaps, if it's an issue of wanton childishness on behalf of the
protester. I just take comfort in the fact that most users don't
participate in community forums and most participants don't engage
in such silly behavior.

So, your problem children are a minority of a minority! ;)
