Disagreements and Conflicts between Audiophiles have we lost our brotherhood and maturity?


I looked back over my posts and even my audio business dealings over the last 5 years and it seems like we have lost our ability to peacefully disagree or resolve disputes like grown men. Some of my best friends in this life are audiophiles and I enjoy the gear, the music and the brotherhood. I don’t enjoy the senseless spats. The inability to resolve conflicts and the people trying to destroy peoples business and reputations. Thoughts?

Lots of bad influencers in high places these days. The results are predictable which makes it even sadder. 

 

@mapman absolutely this. There are bad examples in prominent places and people are following suit, sadly.

@mapman @jmera it used to be balanced and organic.  Now experts pop up out of no where. 

The forums definitely aren't as much fun as they once were, but in the other hand, I don't think there has been as much vitriol lately as in the recent past.
