When I first came here I wanted respect. But no one really gets any respect around here

People are respected around here, but respect is earned not given.

That's not how I see it. Admiration is earned, not given. Respect should be given until there is a reason not to.
Well that's stupid.
You give someone a chance to be respected.
Not disregard them, not respect them.
But a chance to earn one or the other. Respecting someone without a reason is very silly.

Did cheat report him and is he now living in fear of dropping soap?
It was just anthro loli
Not illegal in FREEDOMLAND

Fucking Europoors have to ruin anarchy for us.

Das, it's illegal in some states.
Nobody cares about Florida, LC.

It's more than Florida.

/a/ made a map a few years ago that detailed the status of loli in every US state and Canada.

I admire lots of people here, and I hope there are a few who feel the same way about me. But we have earned that from each other.

Yeah, but looking at loli in those states is still like speeding on a highway. Just don't do it right in front of a cop and you're good.

Respect is always earned. Perhaps there are reasons you have not earned people's respect yet. Just from a casual outside observation you do kinda come off a bit abrasive. Which I don't remember being the case on bnet. Insulting people's likes and dislikes out the gate doesn't earn a good impression.

That and you seem to be taking lessons from the Verbatim school of human interaction. Which is sure to not win over the friendliest of welcomes. You get what you give from sep7.

Being nice does in no way equal holding a person in the highest regard.
You can use hyperbole and roundabout ways of speaking, but using the wrong words entirely is another thing.

In that case, make sure to use words as they are intended, better to have said courteous if thats what you meant.

Ha! I was even more of an asshole on bungie.net. I'm a much nicer person now, it's just that people often twist/misinterpret my words to be insults, which is never, ever the case. It's not their fault, it's mine for not wording my thoughts properly. I'm working on it.

I'm only a product of the Flood. If you look at some of my posts in Serious, I'm a much more pleasant person because I'm taken, well, seriously. The anarchical nature of the Flood doesn't mix well with my more serious mindset when I get on the internet. It just so happens that this is the most popular forum on the website.

Haven't you ever been in any work orientation or school function where some of the basic rules are "respect your co-workers/fellow students"? That is what I mean. It's synonymous with "courtesy".

I think it's a bit of a stretch to say they have completely different meanings.

No I haven't, because the wording used here is "Treat them with respect", you don't need to actually respect them, just act like you do in the case that you don't so to form a less confliting work environment.

A forum is a wildly different place from a work environment, in fact it's more like a pub.

Courtesy is being polite to others.
Respect is given to someone you hold in high regard.

You don't walk into a place with strangers and assume you need to hold them all in high regard.

It's an informal synonym that makes sense within that context. Within the sentence you used it would not convey that meaning.

Context is everything, be aware of this.

Also what Bryne said, it's typically "treat them with respect" here in the US. Maybe Canadians can't into proper grammar.

Are we really arguing this? Because in my experience, it's been worded both "respect your co-workers" and "treat them with respect".
Y'all want me to redact the "respect is given" shit? Fine. I redact it. But that's some shitty arguing there, guys.

Ye. There are a couple people here who are more serious and run into the same miscommunication stuff on floof. As for verby...well..the guy is the definition of an abrasive personality. To put it lightly. Some of the stuff he posts here...I wouldn't call mentally stable. He has his own problems.

I dunno, I don't feel like I really have a problem with ya yet. I remember liking you on the flood, and Tyger seems to get along with ya. Maybe it just takes a while to learn everyone's personalities and find a fit here.
