I don't like or appreciate rants.

Rantors are not all the same and so I do not have a universal rule how to treat 
them.
In this instance, for me the product rant was not that aggressive that I would 
remove the user if I were list owner.
I would remind the user that rants like this are not appreciated and ask for 
more information.
Now I received information that this happened off-list and was replied with an 
other rant.
This information gap leaves other members on the list in the dark.

Have a nice weekend all,
Marcus

Yes, but tone matters.  It seems that world is now full people who deem 
themselves so
important that anything they say should be considered as absolutely truth and 
they
should be the center of attention.  These verbal bomb throwers make everyone 
around
them - both in real life and virtually - miserable.

What is almost always true about such people (I don't know in this case) is that
they do not contribute anything to help out.  They don't answer questions for
newer users, they contribute code, they don't contribute money ... nothing.

All they provide is complaints.  They love to bask in the glow of identifying
a problem.  That's it.

So if the list owner had enough, I think that just means the misery index was
exceeded.

I can understand your anger
But I don’t. Let me be absolutely clear. There’s nothing in the world that would allow you to treat me, my team and the other list members like this. And there’s nothing in the world that would justify such behavior.

The user in question has been removed from the list and banned. I would rather 
spent my energy on the users who treat other with respect than work around 
someone’s “anger”.
