It wasn't always peaches 'n cream with EVE's reputation. The height of the hatred was about 2-3 years ago when EVE and CCP were constantly popping up on news items and various blogs due in-game/out-of-game scandels, technical achievements, videos created by the fan community, FanFest 200X, tournaments, and whatnot. The spittle was really flying when MMORPG had the top voted game list in the upper right corner of the homepage. Tons of people just could not wrap their minds around the fact that EVE was crawling to the top of the list and dethroning WoW in the process. To fan the flames even further, whenever MMORPG had the reader choice awards and EVE was snapping them up left and right caused the haters to really get their panties in a twist.
