That seems to be a trend these days, people love to throw that term around. Don't take it personally, I see it applied to tons of games. Especially after only one or two plays :D It's one of those game "buzzwords" along with 'elegant,' 'pasted-on theme,' etc...
I full agree with this, someone posted on the Agricola forum about how Agricola wasted his money and got bombarded as well over there.
I find people seems to feel over defensive about the games that they love, and have forgotten that bad reviews are also reviews. Someone can comment that this game is a best party game ever designed, and someone can also say that this is a broken game. It is then up to the reader and also the thumbs system whether which review is good and which is bad.
I for one, love to read about what people don't like in particular games when reading reviews.
