I respect your views Niraj and I do agree with your point regarding the we behave
socially. But this is how people normally call others in such communities. It is not
something which is mandatory and you are always free to call whatever you want. Which guy
will deny being called "Sir"? ;-)

Dear Subhashish,
Using the word 'sir' or "m'am" when talking to someone you're
not familiar with is generally intended simply as a gesture of respect. It's not some
sort of submissive term or something which indicates hierarchical structure, simply
we're born and brought up in a society where respect to others is at priority and
that's exactly why i used it.
I mean no harm or offence to the open source community nor any individual in specific.

Hope the reply conveys my intentions behind the same.
Regards & Thanks,

Dear Niraj,
Just a small point.
In an open source community like Wikipedia everyone is same and equally treated. So,
there is no need of adding destinations and adding Sir/ Madam for anyone irrespective of
their age.
Best!
