And this somehow suddenly made the Ramones bad?

No, it made them dated.

Well, not to harp on this, but I still can't see how dated = bad.
You're the one who said they "were really good" after all. Good music gets aged, of course, but does it become bad because of that?
(hint: No, it doesn't.)

Edit: Yes I enjoyed them a lot, but I discovered newer bands that I thought did that 3-chord pop punk sound better, so I listened to them instead.

I saw them live and I thought they put on one of the most fun sets I've seen, so as far as I'm concerned, you're wrong.

The thing I always liked about the Ramones was you knew it was them the second one of their songs starts because they had such a unique sound.

Most modern punk leaves me cold because I can listen to 100 different bands and barely tell any difference between them.

show me the Descendents link. I am sure I can figure out the Green Day song if that is the case.

I'm pretty sure it was 'clean sheets'

Anyhow in the end it doesn't really matter because of the preponderance of evidence of other rip-age:

I Never Realized How Much Green Day Ripped Off Other Bands Until Their Game Came Out

but really in their defense, virtually ever band has ripped off each other if you are just going by a riff here and there.

This is so true in pop-punk when it comes to riffs and chord progressions that it isn't even worth mentioning.
