WHY DO SOME AUDIOPHILES TRY TO TELL OTHERS WHAT THEY CAN OR CAN’T HEAR IN A SYSTEM?

I ask the question. Because I have had several discussions on Audiogon where certain posters will try to tell another person what they can or can’t hear in a system. Most of the time never hearing or having experiences either the piece of equipment, cables etc. It is usually against those that spend money on more expensive equipment and cabling. Why is this so prevalent.

Delusions of grandeur. My system and virtually every system is absolutely unique, how anyone believes they know what I hear with my system in my room requires super powers.

+1, follow what @cleeds wrote,

It's clear to me that some people come here solely to disrupt and ridicule. They're trolls, although some are cleverly disguised. But in general, there is no shortage of people who want to tell others how to run their lives. Both groups are generally best ignored.

We all see the same people jump in and post over and over about how something is not good, and yet they cannot explain having ever tried it before themselves.
