If you want a dealer to fully disclosure where does it start and stop? Are you holding dealers to a higher standard than audiophile posters? What about posters making claims and recommendations about a piece of equipment they have never had, used or heard. Do we make them disclose that information too? What about “ professional” reviews in publications do they disclose that the manufacture runs adds on their platform? This is the internet and you need to take EVERYTHING you read with a grain of salt. This is and should be a small part of your overall research process. To call someone out you better be ready for the boomerang to come back at ya!
About users with hidden agendas

I know of a gentleman here that continuously posts and goes after people and does not disclose who he is.
What are the ethics of this forum?

@jetter has been pretty spot on about the individual. There is not much he offers other than charged words and mainly just negativity. Not healthy and I stay away from it. It’s pretty easy to spot the intelligent individuals because they know how to talk with others, know how to manage emotions and feelings toward a specific topic, discussion or even a certain individual(s). It is a skill for sure and not many have it, or at least at a high level, but the basic communication skill is sooo lost on many in all the different forums.
That being said, everyone has probably had a "moment" or two in an exchange with someone, but that isn’t what this is about. This is a full time condition with an agenda and or complete lack of communication skills and really doesn’t care. Perspective is important. This is only audio |
