I think if you want all puppies and rainbows in the forums, it would be more realistic to make a sub forum for positive only stuff, than it would be to expect people to keep frustration and their feelings on things to themselves. There are, after all, many forums run by others that can operate on whatever rules they feel like.
I think it would be terrible PR if they discouraged feedback that not everyone likes.
Believe it or not, the more someone is into a game, the more they are invested in it emotionally, the more likely they are to voice their opinion, negative or positive. The forum does also, provide us tools to filter out what we don't like. You aren't forced to read threads, and if you really find someone's behavior offensive, you can ignore them.
The point is that there are many negative threads about exactly the same topic. E.g. there are 3 discussions about one single tweet. These kind of discussions often have a similar name.
Constructive feedback, may it be negative or positive, should never be discouraged.
But when folks are angry and frustrated it seems they’re not bothered to just keep participating in the one thread, instead they feel the need to start yet another one themselves, of exactly the same topic, to purposely add fuel to the inferno and gain popularity. That’s not constructive. That’s spamming the forum with negativity.
