Respect works differently than the other stats in HoboWars in both the way it is obtained and the benefits it provides you with. Instead of obtaining it from a location like the University, respect is obtained whenever you attack another player and win, and only through this way. Also, the benefits of respect vary according to the type of respect you have–positive or negative. Positive respect provides a boost to your speed combat stat and your defense. Negative respect, on the other hand, provides a boost to your speed combat stat and your attack. Whenever you attack a player with positive respect and win, you receive negative respect. On the flip side, whenever you attack someone with negative respect and win, you receive positive respect.

====Obtainment====
 +
Instead of obtaining it from a specific location, say, the University, respect is obtained whenever you attack another player and win. Your respect is not affected when you win or lose a fight against NPCs, nor is it affected when you lose a fight against another player.
  
 +
====Benefits====
 +
The benefits of respect vary according to the type of respect you have–<font color=#22A100>positive</font> or <font color=#FF1100>negative</font>. Positive respect provides a boost to your speed combat stat and your defense. Negative respect, on the other hand, provides a boost to your speed combat stat and your attack. Whenever you attack a player with <font color=#22A100>positive</font> respect and win, you receive <font color=#FF1100>negative</font> respect. Conversely, whenever you attack someone with <font color=#FF1100>negative</font> respect and win, you receive <font color=#22A100>positive</font> respect.
 +
 +
==Respect Titles==
 +
Once you have reached a certain amount of respect, your respect title will change and you will receive greater respect stat bonuses. Your default respect title is Hobo, which yields no respect stat bonuses whatsoever. Once you reach either <font color=#22A100>25,000</font> or <font color=#FF1100>–25,000</font> respect and own a [[Equipment#Rings|ring]], you will start to receive respect stat bonuses, which are added to your ring's base stat bonuses. To find out your ring's total stat bonuses, add your respect stat bonuses to your ring's base stat bonuses.

There is also another respect title. However, it is only held by one individual, Hell (666). It cannot be obtained through normal gameplay.
Here are some frequently asked question regarding respect.
+
<br />
 
+
{| border="3"
====How many kinds of Respect are there?====
+
! style="background:blue; color:white" | Title
There are two types of Respect.
+
! style="background:orange; color:white" | Requirement
:''Positive Respect'' (referred to as +R from this point forward)
+
! style="background:red; color:white" | Stat Bonuses
:''Negative Respect'' (referred to as -R from this point forward)
+

+

+
| width="170" | <hr />
-R is any amount of Respect equal to or less than 0
+
| width="85" height="42" | Unknown
 
+
|}
====How do you gain or lose respect?====
+
<br />
This is a multiple part answer.
+
==Training Tips==
# You gain or lose respect only when you win a fight with another hobo. Fighting in the arena does not affect your respect. Losing a fight does not affect your respect. (Yes, this was implied in the first statement but I wanted to explicitly state this fact.)
+
When you first start out, training your respect stat will be slow and boring. However, as you become more powerful and able to defeat players with high respect stats, your respect stat will start to grow at a relatively fast pace. The key is to attack players with respect stats that are opposite the type of yours. Whenever you attack someone with the same type of respect as you, your respect stat will not grow towards the direction you want it to. Therefore, choose your targets wisely, keeping an eye out for their respect stat so that you can maximize your respect stat gains.
# If you defeat a hobo who has +R you will receive –R.
+
# If you defeat a hobo who has –R you will receive +R.
+
# If you defeat a hobo who has the same respect as you your respect will get closer to zero
+
 
+
====How can I determine what someone’s respect is?====
+
Hobo is alive:
+
:If the hobo in question is alive you can go to Duncan’s House and view the side that they are on and the respect is shown on the right hand side of the screen in line with their name.
+
Hobo is Dead or Alive:  
+
:If the hobo in question is dead you can do a search by going to the City, clicking on Hobo Meeting Area, enter the user's name or ID number into the search field, click on the hobo's name, and then looking between their Age and Level.
+
 
+
====What amount of respect do you need to have in order to get ring bonuses?====
+
If you have positive respect, it must be greater than 25,000. Else it must be less than -25,000.
+
 
+
====Do hobos that have –R also get ring bonuses?====
+
Yes, as long as they have -25,000 R or less.
+
 
+
Note: less than -25,000 -R would be -25,500
+
 
+
====Are the ring bonuses for +R and –R the same?====
+
No, the ring bonuses for +R and –R are similar but not identical.
+
 
+
====What are the ring bonuses for +R and –R if they are different?====  
+
+R 25,000 or more is a bonus to Speed and Defense.  
+
–R 25,000 or more is a bonus to Speed and Damage.
+
 
+
====Do all of the rings provide the same amount of bonuses and how does Respect affect the bonuses?====
+
No all rings do not provide the same bonuses. Respect adds onto the base bonus of the ring.
+
 
+
====Is the +Speed bonus added to your stat first then calculated into the speed formula for battle?====
+
No. The speed bonus is a straight addition to your bottom end and top end speed.
+
 
+
Example: If you have 25,000 +R, a Gold ring with Diamond, and 2,000 Speed.
+
 
+
Your Speed located under Defense would look like the following without any ring bonuses:
+
Speed*: 500 ~ 2,000
+
 
+
After your +175 Speed bonus your Speed would look like the following with the ring bonuses:
+
Speed*: 675 ~ 2,175
+
 
+
This also applies to the +Damage bonus or the +Defense bonus depending if your respect is positive or negitive.
+
 
+
====How can I see what bonuses my ring gives to me?====
+
If you meet the requirements to have ring bonuses simply hover your mouse over the name of the ring and a small popup will appear telling you your bonuses. The name of your ring will be located directly under your Armor on the right hand side of your living area.  
+
 
+
Example: Gold Ring with Diamond with 25,000 –R will read:
+
Ring: Gold Ring with Diamond (E: +175 A/S) [Buy][T]
+
 
+
The Popup while hovering over the ring will show:
+
+175 Damage, +175 Speed* (150 from ring +25 from respect rank)
+
  
===Do the Ring bonuses affect WC fights?===
+
Another way to speed up your respect stat training is to consume a Jolly Gentlemen mixed drink. The effect it gives you, ''Classy as Hell'', increases your respect gains by 20%. Beware, though, for the 20% increase applies to both types of respect. For example, if you have positive respect and attack another player who also has positive respect, you will receive 20% ''more'' negative respect, '''not''' 20% less negative respect.
Yes, Ring bonuses do affect WC battles. Testing has been completed and battles between 2 people in the #1 slot in the WC and in an individual battle show the same consistency of damage/defense/speed.

Respect is a stat that provides benefits to those who own Rings.

Mechanics

Respect works differently than the other stats in HoboWars in both the way it is obtained and the benefits it provides you with.

Obtainment

Instead of obtaining it from a specific location, say, the University, respect is obtained whenever you attack another player and win. Your respect is not affected when you win or lose a fight against NPCs, nor is it affected when you lose a fight against another player.

Benefits

The benefits of respect vary according to the type of respect you have–positive or negative. Positive respect provides a boost to your speed combat stat and your defense. Negative respect, on the other hand, provides a boost to your speed combat stat and your attack. Whenever you attack a player with positive respect and win, you receive negative respect. Conversely, whenever you attack someone with negative respect and win, you receive positive respect.

Respect Titles

Once you have reached a certain amount of respect, your respect title will change and you will receive greater respect stat bonuses. Your default respect title is Hobo, which yields no respect stat bonuses whatsoever. Once you reach either 25,000 or –25,000 respect and own a ring, you will start to receive respect stat bonuses, which are added to your ring's base stat bonuses. To find out your ring's total stat bonuses, add your respect stat bonuses to your ring's base stat bonuses.

Training Tips

When you first start out, training your respect stat will be slow and boring. However, as you become more powerful and able to defeat players with high respect stats, your respect stat will start to grow at a relatively fast pace. The key is to attack players with respect stats that are opposite the type of yours. Whenever you attack someone with the same type of respect as you, your respect stat will not grow towards the direction you want it to. Therefore, choose your targets wisely, keeping an eye out for their respect stat so that you can maximize your respect stat gains.

Another way to speed up your respect stat training is to consume a Jolly Gentlemen mixed drink. The effect it gives you, Classy as Hell, increases your respect gains by 20%. Beware, though, for the 20% increase applies to both types of respect. For example, if you have positive respect and attack another player who also has positive respect, you will receive 20% more negative respect, not 20% less negative respect.
