> Ron is Ron. Partly Cloudy is Partly Cloudy. Manic is Manic. We are all individuals with our own unique strength and potentials. And we should all strive to be our best through our positive qualities rather than striving to 'be' Dinahs.

I agree with this too. But if everyone is to be respected, doesn't that mean the Scotts, 10ders, Dinahs, and others who like staying at Babble as well?

There is a tension there. Sort of like how I really value tolerance, but sometimes find myself jumping up and down and shouting "I hate people who are intolerant. I cannot tolerate intolerance!!!" Which always makes me laugh and feel a wee bit more tolerant.

In different places there are different behavioral expectations. While it's nice to value people for who they are, the behavioral expectations still have to be met. And at Babble the behavioral expectations have a lot to do with respecting and valuing others. So definitely there is a tension there.
