Who do you respect the most on NationStates?

This is a catch-all usage of the word, it doesn't matter whether you respect their views, intelligence, eloquence, or just respect them as a person.

If this goes over well enough, maybe I can put together a poll of persons for everyone to vote on. If that goes well, then someone may walk away with quite an honor, as far as NS general is concerned.

So who is it in your opinion?

No-one here is respectable, thats why I come here :D

Nah, seriously. I respect most people here. Especially if they can make me laugh :)

I respect everyone who doesn't flamebait, troll, flame, and use profanity.

I really respect that chap Demented Hamsters for his intelligence, his erudite comments, his wit and above all, his modesty.

and use profanity.

I don't have a problem with profanity as long as it's not stupidly excessive.

I really respect that chap Demented Hamsters for his intelligence, his erudite comments, his wit and above all, his modesty.

Demented Hamsters is out of the running. :p

Me personally, I respect Lunatic Goofballs for his humor and off the wall but good natured posts.

I almost always agree with DeaconDave but I haven't seen him around lately.

Kanabia is always in on the music threads and that is a big plus.

Postumously, BlindLiberals for all the motivation.

Roach-Busters is good too. While I may not agree with him politically, he's a genuine nice guy.

I could add a few more. Dunbarrow is cool.

I like Bucksnort, even though Buck gets a little heated.
And I find Neo and Keru entertaining (although neither would let me give them a reacharound).

Tactical Grace is cool.

I have too many.

Etrusca- same as what Vittos said

My Gun Not Yours - I have gained a lot of respect for lately. Appearance might lead one to believe he is some dumb redneck but he is quite smart and openminded

The three people who provide the best in comic relief - Lunatic Goofballs, Legless Pirates, and Torching Withces

Vittos Ordination - Knows a lot about music so I have to respect him there. He appears to be open-minded and very intelligent. Also, he has a cool tree for a sig.

Los Banditos - one sexy bastard who is quite possibly the smartest and most humble man ever to live.

Oh, how can I forget Klonor. She puts up with a lot of shit for being Japanese. And her threads are often copied. And who knows more about Red vs Blue then him?

True. Rarely quite agree, but he's open to ideas and offers intelligent arguments to his viewpoints.

Aw, shucks, thanks! :D

Myrth is good

The Fairy Tinkerbell is naughty

and a few more, but you ge the idea, that's why I'm here

You are the first person to mention my tree. I was so proud of it and I was beginning to think I would never hear anything about it.

And as for My Gun Not Yours, he's ok, but I don't know how anyone who appears to be smart can be so consistently wrong. ;)

Dempublicents
15-12-2004, 18:59
Hmmm...

Well, the first to come to mind are Bottle, Graven Idle, and Upward Thrust. I don't agree with them all on everything, but we can always have good conversations.

Etrusca is cool. He and I disagree on a lot of things, but he is usually cool-headed about it and, knowing that he served in the military, I can certainly see where he's coming from on many viewpoints.

I used to have a good bit of respect for Keruvalia, but that is all but gone at this point.

Maybe I'll add more later as I think about it. =)

Edit: Ack! How could I forget Stephistan and Zeppistan? And Bodies Without Organs is great at being the devil's advocate, although I'm never sure where he/she actually lies on a given debate.

15-12-2004, 19:02
Lunatic Goofballs, by far.
Neo Cannen
15-12-2004, 19:05
Depublicants definitely. Unlike Grave_&_Idle and others she is willing to admit that she too may be wrong, and not just claim victory whenever they like

I vote for Myrth. He's been pretty helpful a couple of times when I've asked people for help with something in 'General'. I also quite liked his approach to that "The Chosen Aryans" guy. You know, with the nasty pictures...

Variously: Klonor, MKUltra, Stephistan, Zeppistan, Incertonia, and Sdaeriji.

Many others I'm blanking on at the moment. I respect all of you for many reasons.

Vittos and My Guns.

What they post ( and it is usually contrary, as far as I can tell ) is always a good read, and carefully thought out.

Etrusca can get on my nerves at times, but he is consistent with his views and as long as you don't mention Kerry he tends to add a lot to the thread. That and he is sort of an elder statesmen around here.

ROFLMAO!! Um ... thanks for the kind comments ... um ... I think. Heh!

Speaking of editing: I feel I should at least point out that my respect held for Bottle is on the basis of her hardline pro-science veiwpoint, rather than her political and social views.

Actually, I respect Bottle mostly for her political and social views (though I certainly don't agree with all of those views), rather than her hardline pro-science viewpoint. But that's most likely due to the fact that your political ideals are rather different from mine.
Sarzonia
15-12-2004, 19:38
I respect several people for a lot of different reasons.

Automagfreek (RP ability and very helpful; seems to be a very nice guy IRL)
Sdaeriji (I love his writing and I've come to know him a little bit through IM)
Praetonia (The term great minds think alike must have been invented for him)
Isselmere (He's the one I consider my NS mentor)
Roach-Busters (I think of him as a great friend both IC and OOC)
Granzi (I like his writing, his RPing ability, and his research skills :p)
Euroslavia (He invests a lot of time in helping newbs out and I like him as a person)
Der Fuhrer Dyszel (Excellent writer and someone I greatly empathize with for sharing her pain the way she has. I could never do it.)

Bottle, Siljouettes (sp?), Dempublicents, Superpower07, La Terra di Liberta, Eutrusca, Vittos Ordination, Conceptualists, Bodies Without Organs, BLARGistania, Legless Pirates, Lunatic Goofballs, Dobbs Town, Takrai, Incertonia and likely many more are great people in my books.

That's the thing, though... the couple of times he 'broke through', his debating was actually very good. What he was, was a 'dem fine actor', with a collection of specific 'issues' that he role-played very convincingly.

And, his theological 'It Is..." construct made for very educational debate.

But, hey... it's just my opinion.

Well I've got nobody new to add, but Bottle because every post I read from her just radiates intelligence. I feel smarter reading what she writes.

Lunatic Goofballs and Legless Pirates because they're great for a laugh. :p

Fairy Tinkerbelly because it's great to read her flirting with everyone ;)

And as far as the mods go, Myrth and Tactical Grace seem cool enough. :)

All my NATO (and ex-NATO) guys. You guys helped me through some tough times in my life. Thank you.

And Bodies Without Organs is great at being the devil's advocate, although I'm never sure where he/she actually lies on a given debate.

i always know what side he's actually on, being just a slightly older and more irish version of myself and all.

what's great is when he gets somebody who is actually nominally on the same side as him into an uproar of sputtering indignation. "how dare you point out the logical fallacies and factual inaccuracies with my argument!"

Legless Pirates and Lunatic Goofballs- Not only because I find them refreshing and insanely hilarious, but they both seem like nice guys.

Sdaeriji and Shaed- Especially when they're "together" (or posting to one another, rather) they always seem to have interesting conversations.

Etrusca, Torching Witches, Upward Thrust, and Vittos Ordination- I always seem to enjoy the posts made by any of them, and they all *seem* intelligent :)

Myrth and Lascivious Maximus- The only two I talk to outside of the "General Forum", both sweet guys (although Myrth would like to seem bitter and mean, haha)

Tink- I don't think I could say anything bad about her, she seems really sweet and her posts are always a nice addition to any thread.

Lots of people seem to think I am a racist/homophobic/shovinist bigot. I am curious to ask why people think this as I have always done my best to explain my views in the clearest and most logical way. Further more I never say anything to the effect of "kill all faggs/poofs "(US/UK respectively) "All women all stay in home", or "all Muslims are terrorists". So I would just like to ask if there is anyone out there who has seen what I have posted and respects me for what I am trying to say.

Personally, I look up to:

Iuthia: He has been noted in a few of my stickies as the "All-Knowing One", and I mean it.

Sarzonia: Great RP'er, and an even better person. I enjoy talking to him a lot. He has good interest in music too. This ones for you Sarzo, the 3rd Mikesketeer :fluffle: :fluffle:

Roach-Busters: He's quite a good RP'er, and I enjoy reading his posts.

Tuesday Heights and Nanakaland: The two people I look up to the most. I can only hope to get close to all of their accomplishments... same goes for Goobergunchia and Frisbeeteria.

I thought there might be a possibility as there are a fair number of Serbians and Croatians in the Detroit area. I was over in that neck of the woods this summer. Wroclaw to be specific although we visited Auschwitz and a few other places while in the area.

Well, I'm some combination of Swiss, German, English, Scotch-Irish and possibly Scandenavian, but prior to meeting my wife I'd never been farther out of the country than Tiawana and Brownsville Mexico. Since I met her, I've been to Croatia, England, France, Austria, Poland, Slovonia, Slovenia, Serbia, Czek Republic, Slavakia, South Africa, Swaziland and Mozambique all in about 3 years. What a ride.

Actually, it wasn't bad. Yes, there is a risk of car-jackings so you don't drive at night, but touring Kruger Park(wild lions, elephants, zebra, jaguar, water buffalo, giraffe etc amazing) for 4 days was my favorite 4 days of all my traveling. Oh and the resturant at the Royal Swazi Hotel was probably the best I've ever ate at.

In terms of abject poverty, Mozambique was the worst. Its capital city has over 2 million people that live in cardboard shacks.

Okay, first let me say that I have tremendous respect for everybody. People start with my respect by default. Though it can be lost. Most of those who have lost my respect on this forum are long gone. Coincidence? Hehehe. You be the judge.

Anyhoo, I have extra respect for everybody who mentioned my name in this thread with an extra-special heaping helping to the following;

Legless Pirates and Vittos Ordination. And yes, I am considering going to a Stunt School Camp this summer I can't remember if it was in Minnesota or Wisconsin, but I have the information here somewhere... yeah. $3000. I have the money, but it's a little hard to drop that kind of money without a physical object to show for it. You know? Still considering.

Unfortunately, I just got back from my less enjoyable job(as a blackjack dealer). Getting hit in the nuts would have been more enjoyable.

...well, maybe not. But certainly more interesting.
