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.

I used to tell people in my office to be careful with their cutting off and flipping the bird to someone in traffic, It may be me on my bike or their boss, if they can be civilized by the water cooler or at meetings, why can't they be civilized on the road. It never changes, on a nameless, faceless forum people will be jerks when they have a bad day.

For some people , audio is like a religion.

And religions have often led some people ,  far from reason .

@calvinj I agree with you 100% but its happening all over the place not just in these forums. Society in General especially in internet forums where people are anonymous. Even our own congress is out of control!

I think we have all been duped into thinking we all need to hate each other.  This is just my observation. Divide and conquer.
