OK, take your time - you should be able to provide a few in a few hours.
I would hope that people that have been on these fora since 2004 would be able to distinguish trolls from real posters. Yes, things have gotten worse in the last few years but trolls exist not just in fora but in the real world too.
Also understand that just because someone holds a strong opinion, it doesn't make them a troll.
Note: I'm writing this from a 2013 cMBP that I bought over a rMBP, and I expanded the RAM and swapped the HDD for an SDD.
Just sayin.
Not speaking for the original poster, but you do see a lot of snarky remarks from folks about complaints about upgradeability etc. One post here mentioned the user would love blue ray, and dead on cue, someone else posted a query if they also wanted 5.25 floppy drive. It's become prevalent on just about every product forum on MR - though the MP forum seems to be more about debating "what is a pro user".
I think we need healthy dialogue w/o characterizing users disgruntled with the current apparent direction of Apple's computer line as somehow grumpy old people yelling "get off my lawn", or the opposing side as rich snobs who toss their rMBPS into a dumpster after a year.
I find this debate fascinating, b/c I like to tinker some, but also find the form factor Apple is producing - and as noted previously the engineering behind it - astounding. I own numerous Apple devices, but also loved building a gaming rig with my kids. I personally just hope Apple listens to concerns of long long time supporters who are feeling left behind
