Potioncat:
If it's negative posts you want, go back to the first DH post. You 
won't have to read far to start finding all the negativity you could 
ever want! Most of the readers who were disappointed or displeased 
with how the series turned out have stopped posting. Some of us who 
have areas that we weren't pleased with have continued, and of 
course, some readers genuinely liked the way the books turned out.

I'll agree that there are areas where "I" think JKR dropped the ball. 
Others agree completely with canon. But I think the main reason that 
we spend so much time explaining the auhor's choice to each other, is 
because that's what HPfGU-ers do best.
