Sorry. I'll try to be brief to avoid too much derailment.
Potato Pile: seems not to be as universal as I thought it was, but basically a children's game/prank where someone yell's "potato pile!" and proceeds to fall down on someone and form a pile on them (much to the bottom person's chagrin).
Hence, I got a vibe that multiple people (potato pile) were popping in (drive-by) just to simply to announce that; "Hey! I don't like that thing you said you like" (negative) without really contributing much else.
I see it happen quite a bit whenever people talk about books/authors that others deem a little too "Literary" (for lack of a more meaningful descriptor) for their tastes.
May not have been what was happening here, but like I said, just a vibe I had. Carry on.
