Indifference or lack of care doesn't lead to solutions either. I agree, complaining for the sake of complaining really isn't useful, but can still let a company know that the majority of it's users (In this case, server operators) are not happy with the way things are going. They can reassess the way they do things or continue doing them the same way. The fact that people complain so much about the timing of updates, like for example, the end of the week, should send a message to Valve about what server owners do not appreciate. It doesn't mean things have to change, but it's a valid complaint that deserves attention.
I see plenty of complaints on here that are followed up with ideas and solutions. If you want to sit back and say nothing, that's your choice. Don't call out people on the list as nothing more than complainers who impede your "solution finding" when it's very likely many of these complainers have led to some improvements and changes that you enjoy today, running your own servers.
