It's offensive for you to bleat about "children" "whining" when loyal, paying customers are merely pointing out that they'd prefer the vendor to take a little care and pay a little more attention in circumstances like these.
Actually there was a particular post I was replying to that was specifically complaining that the event didn't go live with the patch.

My point wasn't that oh noes people whine, my point was merely that no matter what the devs do someone is going to be miffed. If they launch it early people complain it was early. If they launch on time people complain it was ontime or at an inconvenient time.

There will always be a certain level of whine, and really unless its something the devs can actually fix (unfortunately expectations isn't something they can fix) its just fluff.

Differing opinions though. "The devs screwed up again" is not helpful, "It would have been a good idea for the devs to have placed the date in the GMOTD." however is helpful.

The smiley faces in my post however were suppose to convey the light hearted nature of my tone.

Indeed. I'm just more than a bit tetchy tonight. Age does that to a person. Apologies.
