Those 'particularly poor examples' take up 90% of the fics on Teaspoon these days.
90% of all fic is crap, regardless of pairing or fandom -- it's a common saying, and for good reason. So, yeah, I agree that 90% of Rose fic is crap, but the ratio in most fandoms is hardly better (in some smaller fandoms, it's even worse, because you have a lower chance of good writers being attracted to your pairing).
And, you know, I happen to like Rose and ship Rose/Nine myself. So the only painting going on is when people are sure that "stop writing stupid reunion fics already!" equals "ROSE SUX".
Considering most of the people who say things like 'stop writing reunion fics' (which, you know, the people involved could just not read) also do say things about Rose's character (calling her not good enough for the Doctor because of her class -- and yes, someone did say that in a conversation with me -- and such), I'm not sure why it isn't a reasonable leap to make. They don't always say it in the same post, but when they have said things like that about Rose in the past, it's reasonable to assume that they still feel that way about her.
