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

Some people have real passion for music and sound. For them it is much more than "just a stereo".

I am not one of them, by the way, music and sound are important to me but not to that degree.

Well, you already have someone on this thread referring to others as "mentally unstable," so I guess what else would you expect but conflict and disagreement?  

There also seems to be many more threads that appear intent on generating conflict and argument...

@oldaudiophile story time. I had a guy on Audiogon fake his identity call the owner of the company I work with. Disparage me etc etc.  Come to find out.  He lied about who he was. He was on his 8th audiophile name after getting kicked off the site 7 times. I did a reverse trace of his catch phrases and figured out he had been suspended 7  times and we would not have known if I wasn’t a lawyer in my professional life and had the ability to catch him.  Dude lied about who he was, his system, where he lived and what he had owned. Just to try to destroy someone he had never met.  We have some sicko’s in this hobby. But I do meet a lot of good people. Like this weekend a made about 5 new audio friends and had a great time at southwest audiofest. 

@jl35 i agree 100% some just wanna argue about nothing.
