You don't get automatic respect here for your post count either so why did you say that? ???
Well, yeah, that's true. You don't.
The request was for "a little respectful dialog directed towards respected members that devote alot of time in adding to CP". Being the FNG here, I don't know who the "respected members" are, though. As I continue to read more posts than I reply to, I start to figure it out, though. The "respected members" in my book are those guys being respectful to the new guys as much as the old guys.
I just though it was funny, honestly, and not even a dig at cohibasurfer. He seemed to have gotten upset because someone wasn't showing respect to the respected members and then told me to not show my ass. Maybe I didn't interpret the meaning of that phrase correctly, but it sounds like he's calling someone as ass.
Anyway... was just funny, as I said. Even as the FNG, I'll only respect those members around here that earn it. The oldest FOG around still has to earn my respect. He could give two shits whether he actually ever earns it or not (meaning he doesn't care about it), but it still has to be earned.
