Got to agree with Centaur. This is a small community and I find it suprising people need to use "standard internet ettique here".
It's perfectly fine to have negative views about the game and post something like "I think Black Geysers sucks". Even better would be if it was backed up with examples of why they think that way. Calling a review crap on the other hand is crossing the line. Of course reviews are subjective and of course you may disagree with it - which is why you can share your own opinion. Reviwers here are not paid. They are doing it for their own love of RPGWatch and the community.
Honestly, if people talked like this with their friends, family and co-workers like this they simply wouldn't have any contacts in a short period of time.
Unfortunately a lot of people have been "trained" over the last 10-20 years of the internet that is is "cool" to behave like this.
I like Black Geyser. I have played it for about 10 hours and I would probably score it a 7/10.
