I don't get any respect.

And it is really starting to bother me.

How old are you?

And don’t you have some homework to do?

“No regard either!”

Maybe you should change your name.

… to ColdBZ00000fire.

Have you done something worthy of our respect? Link please.

Did Manhattan really give you permission to start this thread? No, I didn’t think so. And I bet Coldfire isn’t amused either. Buh bye now.

By the year 2000, most of the world’s nations will be communist.

Well, we get a lot of turnover here on the board from people who show up and leap in with their questions without getting a good feel for the kind of questions that get asked here. Some of them survive the test of time and get in synch with what’s going on, and others don’t fit in too well. Some of your posts are okay, and some are perceived as off the wall (that whole Superman thing, for one… the Coldfire thread, for another… the man in the boat… non-Americans and god…). I’d say give it time, pay attention and think before you post, and you’ll do all right.

You’ve got to be kidding, right?
I think you get no respect because your posts aren’t mature, for the most part.

Well, that is a good sign; it indicates that you might be amenable to education if your ignorance is causing you too much pain. It suggests that you actually would prefer being paid respect and that you would like to make improvements in your posting style so as to earn that respect. So far, so good.

Now, obviously, having already irritated a number of people, among your foes will be a group who has decided that you will never be worthy of respect and they will very likely follow you around (especially in the Pit) hurling brickbats and catcalls at you.

However, others may be willing to display somewhat more compassion, providing genuine suggestions as to how you might conduct yourself in a respectable manner. If you truly want to be paid respect, you might consider re-reading some of your old threads and paying attention to those who made suggestions in a friendly way or who pointed out errors in your posts without accompanying the critiques with insults. See how you can adjust your posting style to those suggestions, and see how it turns out.

(Or not.)

Yeah, but that was for GQ questions. Did he need permission for Pit threads, too? :wink:

Let’s see: You’re a drooling moron, have the intelligence of a braindead slug and are somewhat less amusing than a pool of sick.

Don’t see much to respect there, but if they ever decide to make a new Police Academy movie I’m sure you’d be considered for a role.

Are the multitude of 2-by-4’s labelled “CLUE” that have been broken over your head finally taking effect?

I love ya BZ. You crack me up. But now I’m upset because I’ve asked you on a number of occasions how old you were and you never answered me.

Now I’m sad.

And I’m still trying to figure out if you are really as, um, how do I put this without sounding mean and bitchy-- as uninformed as you appear or if your posts are some kind of performance art.

Big Girl, he answered me; he claims to be 25!:rolleyes:

Psst, sailor - this ain’t a GQ thread.

But the sentiment is likely a correct one.

BZ00000, even ignoring the topics of your posts - which range from the inane to the inanely offensive - would you consider it conducive to gaining respect to walk into a crowded room full of strangers and yell at the top of your lungs?

Treat the SDMB as the proverbial crowded room full of strangers.

I don’t get any respect either. My wife signed me up for a bridge club - I jump off next Tuesday!

Hello? Is this thing on?
