Can't we all just get along?

I have not been a member for a very long time, and joined Agon to discuss audio with others in my hobby. Seems to me that almost every post devolves into a hijacked  negative argument between a few members that seem to think it's their platform to preach their opinions to any who would listen, and any dissent to what they have to say is met with ridicule/insults, and just downright rudeness.

There will always be differences in opinion, BUT, we can be civilized in how we disagree.

There is already too much negativity in the world. Is it not possible to insulate that from our hobby in this forum, or is this what we have become? Hiding behind our keyboards and not having the courtesy to treat our fellow audio lovers with decency, open-mindedness, and RESPECT !

@willemj  Yes, modern Germany is a very decent country. I have one of my bikes there, and go visit/ride every summer for a month. I have many good friends there, and it is quite a cool vibe, being there. I have never been treated with anything but respect and with good hospitality wherever I go, despite the language barrier that arises on occasion. Luckily we speak a universal language... Got beer????  LOL

Cheers

Some some of these posts are just too long- who wants to read more than a paragraph of someone else’s opinion? I would also like to see the sarcastic, snide, trying-to-be-clever, and kumbaya posts go away. What we might then have is an informative, opinionated, and entertaining forum.

Agreed!  But perhaps less "entertaining".

not all opinions are worthwhile - an expert opinion by an Electronic engineer, acoustician or recording engineer is worth a lot more than an opinion by a run of the mill dude on the internet
