I wouldn’t worry about it, it’s just male egos butting horns most of the time. If someone gets too bent over something I say, I just point them to my forum or website.
For example: I obviously disagree with cj outlook as far as thread development. On my forum I tend to let the threads develop on their own steam and momentum. With audio because you have an entire audio chain that starts with the recording and all the way to the listener’s ears and perception, chopping it up into too many bite size nuggets it kind of feels like someone is trying to say the arm doesn’t exist because I want to focus only on a finger. You can easily focus on the finger while referencing and even including the whole body. At the same time I don’t think cj’s view is a bad one, it’s just different from mine.
Now if someone gets heated or disrespectful, that’s another story. It's a very enjoyable hobby and it's weird to me when I see people getting upset or causing a deliberate disturbance in the force (if I can steal that phrase).
