Greenies Need More Respect

Did I mention that I am treated amazingly without spending a single cent?

 

This is exactly the reason and purpose of my suggestion.

 

We have a green prefix
jkjk lol xD

Getting to the more serious aspect though, this is true. Some donors only want other donors on their island and feel as if greenies don't know anything. I'm not saying all donors, since it is their choice, but it can seriously hurt someone's feelings. I guess in some ways, donors might feel that they are better, since they donated to the server, and have "special perks," but they just need to be more careful when choosing what words to use.

 

Well before rating my post, you maybe should have gotten the point of this thread (Reading my suggestion would have been a clue ) it is not about equality, but about respect. There are enough useless threads about equality, I agree. But there are also too many players judging other players solely over the fact whether they are donor or not. And please correct me if I'm wrong but I suspect you to be one of them.

 

Well, let us see. You're saying donators should treat non-donors with respect. May I ask how that is any different to saying 'Donors need to treat non-donors like an equal player.' I'm truly confused. I don't judge people by their rank, that's like judging someone by their race, or religion. I have quite a few non-donor friends. For example, Chickyy RiverHeart222 Cerir!!! are all org non-donors, that are my friends. I dislike your conclusion, I suggest you refrain from it.

 

I saw this happen some time ago. I hate it I call it "ranksist" :/

 

I literally Rolf'd reading this.

 

If you want to know the difference between respect and equality: judging by your Profile pic, I may be three time your ages, so we will never be equal, but I discuss with you without abusively Rating your Posts / opinion, that is respect. I agree that equality is impossible. But respect is needed.

 

Possibly, yes. Although, there are different aspects of equality, a few examples being; Age, gender, race, profession. We may not be equal on either of them, yes, but this being said, respect is earnt, and earning respect is becoming equal with the rest. Idk I get where you're coming from, but I don't agree with it.

 

What about disrespect? Is it earned or may we get it just on behalf of the fact that one is non-donor? Because this is the point here. The request for respect is made as opposed to the ambient disrespect showed towards non-donors, or "greenies" as they are called regardless of whether they are genuine books or experienced players who cannot / don't want to spend money on an upgrade.

 

Frederick, you talk about respect and equality and then basically said Kira will never be your equal based on a snap judgement of her apparent age.

I have met 14 year olds with more respect, kindness and intelligence than some 40 year olds, so why age is even a question I do not know.

And just to put in my 2 cents, as a long time greenie on the .org server, I find this whole discussion pretty pointless. I've seen people of all ranks both verbally abuse and be verbally abused. Rank is completely unrelated. I for one have been made to feel very welcome on the server, by many people, including Kira

 

Oh hell na

 

Also, the name "Greenie" is sort of rude. It would be nice if there was a more respectful name for players without ranks.

 

How the hell is greenie rude??

 

It's not rude no, certainly. But is does not fit. How is someone who doesn't want to or cannot afford an upgrade a greenie? This has nothing to do with that. It's offensive for experienced players who are not donors. Period.

 

I agree

 

As one of these so called "Greenies" I've had a fine experience on skyblock, and I find no reason to interact with others unless I have a purpose. It avoids alot of conflict.

 

Greenie isnt rude... It isnt a derogatory name, literally just a name. Its no different than calling a donor a donor

 

No it's more like calling a donor a cheater. Hey let's call all donors cheaters! They are buying themselves ingame advantages with IRL money after all!

Just kidding.

Man if you don't understand that calling someone a negatively connoted name that he doesn't deserve is offensive, just forget about this thread...

 

Greenie isnt a negative word lmfao
