        I can’t even see what mistake I made. I didn’t even use that word. I think they are just salty over getting corrected.

      Why are you giving me a definition? I just told you that having more fans dosen’t actually mean it’s going to be loud or harsh. What mistake have I made?

        I’ve made no comment on quantity of fans, only loudness.

        You mistook that to mean “fewer” fans.

          Your phrasing implied that the other system would have blaringly loud fans, which it probably does not, at least if they built and configured it properly. Since people thinking more fans equals louder is an easy misconception to have I jumped to the conclusion that you had made that error. Maybe you didn’t mean to imply that the other system would be loud.

          Giving me the definition of blaring wasn’t actually helpful in any way. I knew what the word meant, so that wasn’t the actual issue. You failed to accurately understand or communicate the problem when trying to correct someone, and sounded like a pretentious knob doing it.
