I must be reading different Matt's than you. I don't know what other people are doing to his personality, but the ones I've encountered seemed pretty well thought out to me.

Just because a character has little background doesn't mean you can't flesh them out some. Within reason, of course. It makes them more believable and less 2D. It used to scare me to take the minor characters and figure out all the little things that make up the small personality they are given, but now I find it sort of fun, and while I haven't RPed Death Note, I do it in other andoms.

Same here. I've never seen a shitty Mary Sue-style Matt. In fact, most of them are more thought-out than DN main characters in fics/RPs/whatever from what I've seen.
Though I think this person is more pissed at the way Matt fans state their reasoning--it's easier to say "he's a blank slate" than to say "I like it when people expand his personality within reasonable bounds--meaning, keeping in mind the few things that are known--and knowing that I could take a totally different direction with him and not get bitched at for making him OOC."
If I could, I'd type out a huge response to every person who gets upset at his popularity explaining my personal view, but for one, I have other things I need to do, and for two, usually they don't respond (believe me, I've tried, I've just gotten to the point where I've ceased to care.) Bah.
