Can God be objectively good despite criticism against Him/Her/It?

I think it's certainly possible. I was telling someone on the "Ask an atheist reddit" last night that if God does exist, that it does not matter what he says to disprove God (that God would still exist nevertheless). But he ended up getting agitated by that and said the conversation was over. It's strange though because such a simple insight was not meant to troll him or trigger him. Anyways, that's neither here nor there. 

I think though, that there are some other possibilities:

God could be punishing us by making us live in a life of suffering (why I don't know).

God could have created the world but left us and now we are all alone.

God could have nothing to do with the creation of this world and some other entity created the world whom has no interest in our affairs.
