Are all poster's at AFF on an equal level of deser
Should any poster deserve more respect than the other?
Are we all equal on a forum?
Should one have "Hush power" over the other?
Should one be allowed to insult, tear down and bash over the other?

No.
Treat others as you want to be treated has always worked for me.

I think everyone is pretty much on level footing...but if I find out that someone is an elder, or elderly, or in a position of authority, I think I may want to tread around them more carefully...just the way I was raised I suppose.

you are so nice renda, and i thought the golden rule was that whoever has the gold rules, lol, just kidding, you are right we should all treat each other with courtesy and decency, respect is a different matter, is earned and hard to discern in the cyber world, dt

Agreed. We should treat everyone with respect, but if you want me to truly respect you, it must be earned.

I give everyone here the same respect. If they blow it and don't deserve it any longer, then that is their own fault. Only two have ever done that. And NO, I will not share with anyone who those two are.
Are we all equal on a forum?
We should all be equal in life. So why shouldn't we all be equal on the forum? I say 'we should be'. Are you wondering whether someone should be given more respect because they are a minister than others who are not pastors? My personal feeling is that ministers do not deserve more respect than others. But that is because I honestly believe that we should all give high regard to everyone!
Should one have "Hush power" over the other?
Administration should. That's what they're here for.
Should one be allowed to insult, tear down and bash over the other?
No. We've discussed this before. The thing to do is to DISCUSS ISSUES. Not insult, tear down or bash others who do not agree with your stand on an issue. The key is to act like adults.

I don't know how to do that thing where you can separate the questions and then put your answers below the appropriate questions, so you all will just have to read thru this this way. Sorry.
