The best would be not to explain the meaning of the word “constructive” but to demonstrate it.
Saying “sorry, this is not constructive” IS, well, not constructive ![]()
For example, in response to:
This update is awful. The responsible team obviously doesn’t care about their jobs.
Say:
So great we have some immediate feedback here! May you please elaborate a bit, what exactly is awful: we wanna keep our users happy, but your feedback needs some more details before our team can discuss it.
Don’t even mention it in your answer that it is not constructive – by saying so you’ll basically state that the writer is incompetent in giving any feedback in written form; to many people it may sound offending (i.e. you are publicly saying that what they wrote is inconsistent or not useful).
