I don’t think it is the primary aim of anyone to obviously or even subtley, to denegrate another. anywhere. at anytime.
however, people tend to post online as though they are a different animal now and then. as while online, normal social constraints are disolved, invisible, or just ignored.
I mentioned to another person here recently, and privately, I am old school. I speak to whomever as if they were sitting across the table from me. regardless, online, on the phone, mail, text, or email.
Audiogon has expanded thru the years with its membership and as such it emcompasses a multitude of cultures and social demographics as such demonstrating respect and common courtesy should be key in any debgate, discussion, or argument, but once more, people without apparent boundaries can become devoid of social ettiquites and protocols.
lastly, the emotive content is vacant in our posts. only the bare lines of words are displayed. without the emmotive or expressive feedback sometimes things are not well received.
say what you mean.
mean what you say.
don’t say it mean.
be well, jim
