I see this in all the MMOs I play. The veterans get all nostalgic and think that the past was always greater, especially since some of the time it's because they are brand new and everything seems interesting to them. Although I didn't actually play BL when V8 came out, I was lurking and knew about the new features etc.
Anyways, the vets are getting older and things probably seem a bit repetitive for them. The game is better now but they had better experiences back then, they just aren't happy with the newer "community". Partly because it's different, and partly because there's more people and it's not as much of a tight "family".
Then there are all the 10 year old kids jumping on the bandwagon and screaming to people that the past versions of the game were so much better, even though they have no valid reasons as to why.
Games like this are what you make of them.
