Anyway minus the fact that Big Boss had broken my heart I think i'm ready to address this.
You act as if you are a saint, as if you have done nothing wrong.
I've seen you on multiple occasions go around insulting (Not just older members) but newer members. How do you expect to receive respect if you are not the one going around showing respect to others? Does that remotely make sense to you?
Or is that, you feel as if you are superior because "you've done so much for the forum" and you are far more above rank then everyone else. You're not going to get a shiny badge that states you are the best member on the forum and that you deserve everything handed to you on a golden platter.
As most members have stated. Give respect, Get respect. It's not that hard to put ego aside.
If you have a problem with most members on the site then use the ignore feature because the staff have put it there for a reason and this is one of them.
Grow up!
