I'm not sure if anyone likes when a course is not in happy condition. But continually whining about it on a public voice board does not good.

Actually complaining does often lead to improvements, if you can find the correct person. I was looking for advice to where I might find a report on the conditions, so I could avoid playing at a course so poorly maintained.
Your assumption that all courses decline in quality is not correct. I have played courses over 30 years that stayed in the same shape as when I started.
Even in the Villages the majority of courses are adequately maintained. Something spectacular went wrong at Mallory. I am sure the greens keeping staff know this, but voicing a complaint might get them to understand people will stop playing at Mallory due to this issue.
And the Developer owns the courses. He controls them. The other items you mentioned that people "whine" about are not in his control. But this problem is squarely within his ability to fix.
