Let me say the most neutral, relevant thing I can, and that's that the TMS forums, especially the frequent posters, are mostly longtime MUDders and MUD admins. These people aren't stupid, and these people aren't ignorant of the lengths to which a disgruntled player will and will not go.
That said, even this well-educated (on this subject) and reasonably sympathetic crowd knows that sometimes disgruntled players have a point or tell the truth. This comes down to a question of credibility, and no one here is ignorant of that -- they just don't necessarily draw the same conclusion from the evidence that you do.
