He is suggesting that we use positive reinforcement when dealing with the content presented to us. You can criticize, but do it in a helpful way that won't discourage the developer (and this is not to say that you have to hold their hand and make sure they don't throw a fit; just saying there are other ways of saying 'I hate it' other than 'it sucks').
I don't think I have ever stated that something just sucks, in fact I don't think I have seen anyone say something like that for a long time because I encouraged people to start voicing their true opinions more. If the development team need to be babied in order to for them to work and release decent content though then they're not doing their jobs. Positive reinforcement doesn't work for content that you genuinely don't think fits in either.

Okay so everyone else (including the people I do not get on with) just jumped on the bandwaggon, eh?
