It is a misconception that respect would grow by age or membership 
duration. Respect is something that needs to be earned, no matter whether
you want to call yourself "senior" or anything. Every single action,
every response, every sentence and every word can matter.

In this regard, I can only suggest you to keep on trying, but as far as
I'm seeing it, you're totally broke at this time.


And what I can promise you, is that each time you're writing a message 
like above, you'll get a reply like that.
Try harder, it's not that difficult to improve communication skills.
