I never implied anyone is above anyone else. But we are talking about appreciation here, I as an active member of the forums and a very active and effective editor and reviewer get a whole lot more attention and appreciation for my work than someone who has 250 edits simply because of the sheer volume of good work I do. It gets noticed.

My story when originally posted didn't get any attention for a couple months, until I became as active in the community as I am. Now the story is appreciated by many, praised by most, and I as a user have garnered respect.

You can't expect to suddenly get praise for doing the bare fucking minimum. And yes, getting 250 edits is doing the bare minimum.
