Giving someone respect just for being around...
Giving someone respect just for being around longer is stupid, IMHO

nope were not gods, were just some people behind the screen who like to contribute...so "no deserve" or "earn my respect" for me.

^ didnt mean it like that, but you get my point they'res nothing special about contributing in a website and getting medals, you probably agree with what i am gonna type but seriously they'res nothing cool about having alot of medals or being in the high contribution list

No. They will earn my respect. There's several people who have never earned my respect despite being here longer than me.

I agree that there is nothing special about having a lot medals and contributions. But, I guess they can earn respect by voicing reasonable opinions and comments. Just saying . That's why I gave the "earning" option. Well, I get your point and respect your opinion :)

I think new and old users alike deserve respect until they do something that warrants taking it away.

Lol though I'm not really active anymore, I've been on this site for over seven years. But that doesn't matter if I haven't done anything to earn respect, does it? If anything I'd think expecting respect with no real basis shows that person is just immature.

Just being here for a longer amount of time doesn't automatically earn respect. There could be some trolls who've been here for years.

^^Totally agree. There have been some years where I hardly ever logged in here while people who have been members for much lesser time have tons of contributions and have been online nonstop. Discovering a site early and making a profile isn`t something worthy of respect. Also making tons of contributions isn`t anything special. Respect is earned through communication and actions. ^.^

I'd rather be "respected" for my ~quality~ contributions than how long I've been a member here.

Respect needs to be earned in every aspect of our Lives. A Social Website is no exception. I'll also agree with ShadowFan100's Option. Doing so is plain stupidity !!!!
