Can't speak for others but I try hard to not complain about the issues although some have def annoyed me. That being said I think with this and other past or ongoing issues it's the way things are handled that really get people going vs purely the issues themselves.You win the thread.
Some of our fans are the worst. Our parking situation is light years better than most of the B1G stadiums even without JP. These same "fans" will complain about our facilities and how far we are behind our competition, yet they will not pay RU the same or less to park in the black or purple lot or the RAC. They would rather give money to the County and continue to complain how we are losing the arms race.
I'm willing to bet that if RU would have been upfront and not shady about it and said at the end of last season that parking options were changing and giving people time to workout their situation many would probably get annoyed briefly and then get over it.
Everytime there's a so-called big issue there's always miscommunications (purposeful or not)...just be upfront and it would go a lot smoother.
