The point is that Poser is an ENTRY LEVEL 3D application - it's cheap and easy to grasp, so it follows that a huge proportion of the work produced with it is going to be what you'd expect from entry level users (ie: well-intentioned, but pretty crappy).

Sure, there are some experts in the poser community doing excellent work entirely with Poser but they are in the minority, many who rise to expert status migrate to more advanced software, once you know what you're doing it's simply easier to do better work with better tools.

Seriuosly though,  Lunedust,  you will always run into " fanboys " praising their software.

Exactly, and a part of praising their own software is  to put down other software and users of other software. But it goes both ways as evidenced in this thread (and every thread like it), the other fanboys say poser and the art produced with it is crap, and guess what? - some Poser fanboys respond with stuff like "screw them", "retards" etc etc.

It'll be interesting to see what happens when Poser Pro arrives because it promises to allow  easier transfer between poser and some of the high-end professional applications. I'm hoping this will have two benefits:
Firstly I think it'll make poser more useful to more professionals, so hopefully the anti-poser group will lose ground or at least become less vocal.

Secondly, I'm hoping that with more highly skilled professionals using Poser and poser figures they'll bring some pressure to bear on the developers to fix the issues like shitty elbows and shoulders, sucky user interface and productivity/workflow issues. Up to now Poser users have put up with poser's many limitations and quirks largely because they didn't know any better. Once we get a lot more users who regularly use much better software I think we'll see more vocal criticism of Poser's weaknesses and hopefully that'll carry some weight.
