Have we lost civility and respect on Audio forums?


I think we have.  I have seen many discussion on audio forums and how nasty they can become when you have people disagreeing. Seems like there are a lot more know it alls now. I been in 20 years and I can still learn.  But I also know I know quite a bit. Like cables can enhance the sound and higher end well designed gear can truly be ear candy special.  Is this just on audio forums or the internet period.

@waytoomuchstuff yes lol. A long time ago I went to listen to a well put together super system. I came home and looked at my set up like it betrayed me.  It looked back at me and said WHATEVER! YOU BETTER TURN ME ON AND SIT DOWN SOMEWHERE! 

Compared to much of the world, especially the social media and political universes, I find this forum an oasis of civility. And yes, better than it was when certain now-exiled provocateurs were running at large.

yes indeed, but this is hardly limited to internet forums -- the problem is quite universal
