A lot of them seem to be about the writer's own character rather than the books they wrote. That's even more useless from a reader's perspective.

You are missing a step here. After a bad review some authors went out of their way to seek out the reviewers in real life and because of that the reviewers decided to warn others about them on GR.
The measures taken by GR don't do anything to authors that decide to go after people who left negative book reviews but stop the reviewers from warning others about them.
