Have we lost civility and respect on Audio forums?

Just watched the trailer.  Count me in.

     Too bad we can't gather around a table somewhere and indulge in the FESTIVUS tradition*.

                                   Wouldn't that be fun?

                                   *ie: 00:45 thru 00:60

Yes, I have been away for a while and upon return, surprised by much lower civility than years past.

@koh_i_noor i left the platform because of the nastiness because I represent a brand i don’t wanna go off cause it hurts our Infigo brands so i watch it now.  People who don’t know you talk super reckless. They say stuff that’s disrespectful. Like i work hard for our owner at Infigo because I see his vision and he makes one hell of a product.  But I’m not hungry for sales.  I want him to succeed because he is a great inventor designer. I work with him because the level of equipment he makes is unlike anything I’ve ever seen.  But because I’m saying this people are nasty and accuse me of shilling and they don’t know me. We literally allow free demos but folks wanna just be nasty.  So the Audiogon platform has really turned me off. 

Its kinda of hard to maintain that don't worry be happy attitude.when things are going to hell. But just try and keep a stiff upper lip as things will get better, especially here. in time. Now I'm signing off before I get carpet-bombed.
