Please, I'm at most 2 to 3 years old;)
I thought you were built a long, long time ago...
Unless Lain prefers to use "she/her" as pronouns, I would assume the more gender-neutral "they/them" pronouns would be the safest to use until stated otherwise.
Last I heard, she does, but they/them works for everyone.

..been here longer than any of yas.....more active than most......and rarely see any of the shit u guys keep complaining.....
When people give respect, we give it back.
Not everyone does it that way, but it is the best way to start things off.
First impressions are what people remember the most.

And that was a blatant and very disrespectful misinterpretation of what I said.
So, let me explain it better.
This is a forum based community.
Whoever speaks first shows respect.
And respect is returned.

Is that easier for you to understand.
Yeah, my response this time was disrespectful. because no respect was given.
simple.

You do not seem to understand how the people who are regulars in this thread are.
We are friends.

Not everyone in forums thinks like you do.
I have been involved in pirate forums of different types for about 30 years as a member, moderator and as an admin in porn, password cracking and warez forums, and have met many good respectful people who watched each others backs, and helped people out who showed respect to other members.
Trolls, who came in screaming and complaining, showing no respect, never lasted long on the good sites.

No.
Respect is earned not given.
Nice truism you got there. Tell me, how does one earn respect? Because seems to me that the way one earns respect is to give repect... which would instead imply that respect is the baseline, and that it is lost through disrespect, thus, respect is only something that needs to be earned when you refuse to give it yourself. Might be a good time to rethink that truism.

That baseline respect is what we used to call common courtesy.
So, yeah, I agree, that we should all start off with a certain level of decency, and then our actions will take us up and/or down from there.
So, while we it's true that respect is earned, not given, we have to start somewhere, and even if that starting point is "0", that should be neutral, not animus, so you are both correct there.

Now, let's all headpat and make up, as Dr. Stone would say...
