MODERATORS
Dobbie was perceived by kids aging into adults.
JarJar was perceived by adults from the start.
Probably, kids had more capacity for their bullshit?
I was a kid when Jar Jar was new, and I'm still quite fond of the character. To me he's the best thing about the series (I don't hold Star Wars in very high regard), so I think you're on to something.
