This should cause the person to go back and try to figure out what's different about their particular device, it's not meant as saying that it's the original persons fault or that they're necessarily doing something wrong.
There are many posts that definitely DO convey that meaning though. Some actually go as far as to suggest using Calibre, or even sideloading, is the problem - for example only. I did not suggest they shouldn't post - I suggested that you shouldn't censure posts with any opinion to express, provided it falls within moderation guidelines. Let the readers of the forum judge for themselves by the type and frequency of the comments, just what the true situation really is. If Kobo gets lots of negative comments - there just might be a reason for that. OTOH if the negatives are frivolous, I am sure most people can see through that, and just attribute it to one user's personal frustration. It's just real life.
