the reason why people complain about nickelback is that they lack substance. many people perceive them as the pinnacle of a band that doesn't legitimately try and actually push themselves. Their songs don't really have a lot of purpose and even when they try and have a "message" it usually comes off as really corny or don't have much thought put into them. Sadly with Rock music being so scarce on the radio these days this is what has to pass for Rock, a bunch of douchebags.
There are also many who view Nickelback as the kinda band you get into when you first really start exploring music on your own and you don't really know anything yet. Later in life you leave them behind for bands of a much stronger caliber and who push themselves as artists (or at least you should.) You discover your Coheed and Cambrias, your Dredgs, your Hives, your Circa Survives, your Silversun Pickups and so on and then look back at how naive you were back in the day and laugh. These people see adult Nickelback fans as never having really left that "not knowing anything about music" stage
