Dear high rep mems, think again how you will treat low rep mems....

Lighten up, Francis.

Analogy fail. You have a choice as to whether you're here or not. If you don't like the way things are you are entirely free to do one as we say in vernacular. If there's one thing that really pisses me off about this generation it's the rampant arrogance with which it assumes that its minor inconveniences are in any way comparable to the unspeakable suffering of those enslaved and persecuted throughout history. I simply cannot and will not respect that!
I am not a number. I am a ... no, wait!

What on Earth are you talking about? No-one can do anything to anyone on a chat board, no matter how many rep points they have. There's not even any down-voting in the lounge -- but even if there were, what difference would that make? Would losing a few rep points on a web-site take time off the length of your life? Would it make women stop swooning over you? Would it make you need to respond to 3" ads? Wake up to reality, Blue-eyes, and don't it get under your skin.

No. No! Respect is given. You can only lose that respect. But when you meet new people, you have to respect them. Imagine a world where everyone you meet for the first time treats you like shit because "you haven't earned their respect yet". So: you treat people with respect. Always. Trust however is earned. so please, don't confuse respect with trust.

There's another side to this. Low rep members should respect high rep members. By this, I mean that when they post a question, they should respect others time enough to not flagrantly flout the posting guidelines. They should take the time to learn forum etiquette and they should stop assuming that we are hear to make their lives simple by doing all their thinking and work for them.

You don't start with absolutely no respect for new people, and expect them to earn it; but at the same time, you don't start with total respect and knock off points every time they say something stupid. You should start somewhere in the middle, and let the level of respect you have for them fluctuate as you get to know them. Anyway, enough procrastinating - get back to writing End of Watch[^]! :-D
