I am just wondering how someone can build something that people actively hate? And then for people to create a thread where people are tearing the app and the person apart? This just gobsmacks me. Especially since, I'm building things and no one really seems to care enough to do anything. So they've obivously manage to stroke enough emotion that people care enough to write about him and his products.

Maybe you didn't get to the part where he said this:

My takeaway is that he came across as a scammer and as a result a few users warned about his product on the forums he was spamming.

That is why they would dislike him. But not why 20 people would comment on a thread. Who even remembers the spammers on forums? Not many.
