These are the people that you tell to go take a flying fucking leap. They don't know how to get help the right way, and do not deserve anything more than a smart ass remark. There's a difference.
There was a thread about who everyone respected in this biz a while back, and the answers were interesting to say the least.
My take on it is, I respect people with honesty, integrity, ambition, and a demonstrated willingness to work towards their goals. If someone shows me this, they have earned some respect. Respect should not be based on hit counts or dollar signs posted on a bbs or some big fucking name just because it's been around for a couple of years. Hitbots can generate alot of hits too... do you give respect to a hitbot then?
It may involve using a little common sense and some judgement, but it should not be too difficult to see who is worthy of respect and development of a good working relationship and who is not worth the time of day. It makes no difference if someone has only been at it for two weeks... if they have respectable qualities and potential, it will show.
It's not about numbers people.... it's about people.
