I've been reading philosophy for some time, and I've seen something I couldn't

I've been reading philosophy for some time, and I've seen something I couldn't understand however hard I try. There've been a number of comments that some ideas are too sceptical. There've also been attempts to defend philosophers from accusation of being sceptics both by themselves and their defenders. Therefore, it seems to me that Scepticism (or being sceptical) is generally considered somehow negative. But why is it so? I simply can't see anything wrong with Scepticism. I am aware of possible cases when defended ones are mistakenly considered as sceptics, but there's possibility that those defended may indeed express sceptical views as well.
