Well, I'm always in the MLG forums as most of you know (mainly the Reach Discussion thread), and I realized something that I never want to see happen in this community. This 'something' is an 'elitist'. Basically, an elitist is someone that talks down to people and isn't afraid to do so simply because of their popularity or respect in the community. They know everyone in the community is 'scared' of them because of either their join date, rep, number of posts, or other things. They think they're the 'royalty' of the forums and so, they take advantage of the respect they have gained. This introduces an unfriendly and unfair atmosphere, which will not be tolerated.

So, what I ask every one of you, is to carefully comprehend and think about what each member is saying. Do not look at a name and simply disregard the post or look at it as stupid because the name has a bad rep in the community, or because they're a 'new kid'. Because a lot of the time, the person has a bad rep for wrong reasons. For example, simply because they're a fan of a team or certain players that a majority of the community isn't fond of. That's not a good reason at all to look down upon someone. Also, you'll find that a lot of the 'new kids' bring a lot to the table. They bring new ideas and different angles to approach things.

Also, this applies to the opposite people. I don't want you to look at a post and automatically glorify that post because you see that a moderator or respected member posted it. Because we also make mistakes. We're not always right. We may say stupid things at times.

I want you to read and understand posts with an unbiased view towards the person posting. This way your view isn't fogged/blinded by your attitude towards the person posting.

It all comes down to attitude and judgment.

Let's keep it fair, calm, and fun.
