That's not entirely true, IMO. The good and bad matches was split about 50/50.
Most of the time you had folks here highlighting the bad, then not mentioning the good. Moreover, two prominent posters here already were highly negative on the player from pretty much day one, and a lot of people believed them.
And again, no offense to Red but I have to discredit him here. I can't take someone who rates Grygera but claims Caceres is a disaster seriously. Sorry.
