You can't respect someone who is a fake, we here, we are all fakes, we censor ourselves.
You want to truly respect someone? Go to that forum and see how they act, you can respect someone who in a consequence free enviroment and still upholds the morals YOU think are good.
Because basically respect is only that, seeing moral choices that YOU also carry. That hardly means they are worth respect, it just means you agree with their morals.
And check out how those morals played out.
If you guys are going to let that forum break apart this one, the problem is with you, not those forums.

I respect most people without having to ever meet them or know their 'morals'. I am sure there are many who might not agree with mine or Shani's or yours, but you have respect, correct? How would going over there gain respect for them now? Bullying, insulting, mudslinging, dragging others into one's petty, shallow issues are not things I would consider worthy of respect.
I am, in real life, the way I am here, maybe a tad more goofy IRL and that's it. Why would I go through the effort of making someone up? That's just stupid.
The people that were doing so much slamming, I had respect for. A couple of them I actually liked based on what I saw here. Look where it got me.
Everyone, especially when they are relatively unknown, deserves respect until the unknown becomes known. Not everyone is going to be liked-that's a given.
I don't think that the other forum will break this one; I do think that, unless they're incredibly egotistic and oblivious, it will be hard for those who do/did the most damage to come back here and have whatever respect they'd gathered through TFP remain the same. The damage has been done.
