Do You automatically have greater respect for someone with a high level??

Ok, well Im not sure if this haas been asked before. But I have noticed that many people say things like ''You level isnt high enough to say that'' or '' this guy is reliable he has a high level'' I have never really cared much for people's levels unless they have like 1-digit post counts and they are trolling. But do any of you automatically look at someones level to check their credibility?I have been a member here for ages and when I was younger I lost a ton of levels on my profile.. hahah so I was just wondering.

No. Post count does not factor into my respect for a poster.Do You automatically have greater respect for someone with a high level??

Agreed, there are people who are such douchebags that happen to be high levels.
pfft, im not even reading that man. your level is too low.
No.
I sometimes look in Unions to see if they are Officers/Leaders, etc. but never that bothered in OT.
I don't necessarily respect people more just because they spend a majority of their lives on an internet forum. But I sometimes ignore low-level posters, many of them are just bandodgers or trolls.
Somewhat. I mean someone with a higher level has obviously been around for quite some time, so they're aware of the rules and wont do stupid little things that break them.

Well 1 digit post counts, no. 2 digit post counts, yes. Although I will make an exception to the two digit rule when said user's level is 3 or lower. There are alot of people who just make alts for one purpose though: To troll. I also fervently disagree with people who declare people's arguments null and void because of level.



It's bs. I think you should respnd as you would with anyone else. I think someone's signature and avatar does alot to represent maturity on GS too though.
I automatically have greater respect for someone with decent grammar and spelling, particularly if English is their second language.
No, I hardly ever look at people's levels and post counts.
Generally, high level posters either have stuck around for longer than lower-levels, do more level-raising activities or have less moderations (which lower the amount of ''level points'' you've got). Any of those paths says that they're at least somehow likely to be guys who can control themselves and avoid getting in trouble with the mods.I tend to look at the posts themselves rather than the account details though. Generally, I only form a truly positive opinion of a person after seeing that he makes quality posts, and that may also be influenced by whether other users (who know the user) respect him as well.
No, but post count will factor in when the person is the TC.
No, regardless of level I find that stupid is still stupid...etc.
On this website it is not a problem. On some other websites people base off of post count and join date. Sherdog.com, an MMA website, is a website where I see plenty of that. Just because my join date is in Aug 2008 does not mean I have not followed the sport for plenty of years now.
I treat every user the same, regardless of post count and level. Some of my very good friends on the internet are only Level 3 here (because they use GameFAQs), while others are Level 40+.
No, why would I?
ill only respect you less if you have a really low level (under 10) but i dont really care if someone has a high level.
Levels have no meaning thanks to the max cap. Hell I used to be level 42.
No, I am not a levelist.
