Please Make Audiogon Cool

Hmmm, wondering if there's a bit of 'social media techno-isolation' going on here? Too bad there's not a bit of real human interaction, we may find we all have something(s) completely in common in real life ???

Or maybe we'll all freak out.... In any case, it may be an experiment worth trying sometime.

Hello enliten,

      While I believe you have a good point about a bit of 'social media techno-isolation' going on here, I believe there's also a bit of real human interaction going on around here even though it's undoubtedly taking place within the virtual environment of an audio blog.  A modern version of the older, more traditional method of honestly communicating our thoughts to each other via letters, quill, parchment and the beloved snail mail network?  

     I perceive it as a bit of real human interaction but neither the modern audio forum nor the old letter exchanges were, or ever will be, an ideal substitution for the real human interaction of a face to face personal conversation with another of our species.

Clearly most audiophiles are very cool people and have a lot of interesting things to say, especially if you call this a lifestyle. In addition some people may think that we are obsessed, rude and overbearing at times and that certainly comes out on some threads for some folks but
not all.

Here is a thought worth mentioning and you have heard before, aside from constructive criticism if you don't have something nice to say then don't say nothing. It could actually leave people with the impression that visit this website on occasions, that we are actually a nice bunch of people.

Hello phd,

     Well said. I don't know about you, but I've grown rather fond of the humans.  It's a shame they may all be extinct soon.  Interesting species; they're obviously not too bright and lack a long-term perspective but they also mostly seem to mean well.

Give anyone species too much rope and they'll **** it up.
