So lately I've seen a lot of older members putting down new members, and criticizing them for receiving the Gift of Gold.
On top of that they're criticizing the members who are gifting gold and trying to change and give their outlook on who to gift.


I don't want to name-drop nor do I want to call people out, but I'm going to show a good example of what I'm talking about now:


(Mind you this caused everyone to put down the new member and everyone began saying he didn't deserve it)

[ Register or Signin to view external links. ]



This member put down a new member, couldn't even congratulate him and simply told him he didn't deserve what was given to him.
Sure reputation and post count does make a person look reputable but it doesn't mean you're better than another person nor does
it give people the right to put new members down and disrespect one another. I feel as though some of these older members think they
are better than people and it's quite displeasing as they're influencing our newer members to think "I need more posts to be liked here."



This type of behavior towards other members is what is causing people to spam, and make useless posts to get higher states on here.
Why can't everyone on here have the mentality: Quality over quantity, and give everyone a chance and the benefit of the doubt?



What I'm trying to say:


Worry about yourself, and stop criticizing people for the way they spend their money and if you have nothing nice to say to another
member then don't say it at all because no matter who it is on here, every member deserves respect and to be treated fairly as well.
Anyone who spends $150 by gifting other people deserves the badge, and anyone they gift is their choice and has nothing to do with you.


If we welcome people, and worry less about reputation and post count this site would be a much better place. Worrying about it only
influences people and makes them feel belittled and as if the only way people will take them serious is if they have over 1,000 posts
which they will spam to get because all they want on here is to be respected, and be treated similar to the older members on here.



Sorry for the long rant, but honestly if you want things to change here we have to start with the older members, and influence the new.
We were all new members at one point, and we all have thought "I deserve this" just as much as anyone else, so why tell someone they're
not good enough to be gifted gold? Why say they don't deserve what is given to them? All I ask is that people respect others, that's all.



To the new members, sorry if you feel targeted by others on here, never let it push you away from the site & helping other people out.


Thanks for reading.

Disrespect, I agree should stop.
But this is just stupid, you don't gift people who don't help.
There are 1 year members that are active and have great releases that have yet to be gifted.
Gold gifter is a horrible badge.
