What is the point in electing members to become 'Notables'

I used to say how it was and is a stupid idea of making some of the more longer running members more respect than other members (which quite frakly I don't think anyone deserves) however I now have another more relevant reason.

Does anyone really care whether they have regular or notable under their name? If so they must be very very sad people! When I read messages, although I take a look at who they are from, I don't look at their status and see if they're a notable or not. I don't care at all if they're notables or not.

No one here deserves any more respect than anyone else. Everyone should be treated the same, fairly and as equals, instead of being thought of as 'better'.

No member on this board is better than me. And I'm not saying I'm better than anyone else! Every member on this board has, or should have the same rights on this board (other than staff members who run the board).

If people want to sink so low as to vote for others in a 'notable' election, then that's fine by me. However why waste your time. People like me wont even notice if anyone else has 'notable' under their username.

er-no sits on the fence but jumped off when he discovered it was spikey,

Don't worry er-no i'm not against notables just the concept!

I am going to sit on my fence....

SAY NO TO NOTABLES

Some are being aragont (Grix), Their name is in an awful colour, i feel dissapointed people don't respect me when i don't get voted and quite frankly it causes bullying to newbies which i have seen by many including time warp, why can't we go back to when it was nice and simple!

Another classic!!

Keep 'em coming, dad!

Notables are notables for a reason. It's not like they're better than you, they're just there to guide newbies in the right direction and in the way of the FOG.

Come to think of it, there hasn't been that many newbies signed up recently.

I like all of the Notables so leave them alone..... you are obviously jealous.
