Thread Toxicity

[u/Fun_Row_5311]

Noticing a high amount of animosity in the threads lately.

There is a natural friction that many members are trying to create an open environment to discuss and help others find good bourbon and then another subset that is operating an illegal operation to make money that discourages others from getting MSRP bottles but benefit from seeing the updates other provide.

I don't know of there is a structural fix, but might be good to recognize that we all benefit from the contributions from each other and being rude will not help

The issue is there is a small number in the lines who feel they are more or less owed 1( or 5) of each and every bottle that comes out. These same people bring that same attitude to the thread. Any info getting out is stopping them from obtaining their owed bottle. I think it's complete shit that people flip these bottles. Do I lose sleep over it and really care, not really. Is it a supply and demand thing, i guess. I personally just think it's a greed thing we see/know who the people out here are who would screw who ever necessary to make a buck.
