Always have liked him. But when the pre-ROTS rush of moronic fanboys came out saying Sidious and Anakin could and would pwn all it was tiring. Top that off with Darth Somebody arguing semantics trying to put Sidious a level higher than he really is was also tiresome.
I also detest KOTOR obsession and fanboyism, and I like KOTOR. It's possible.

Most respected? Basically anyone with a lightsaber that works! (Well, would you argue?).
Regarding the comments above decrying Darth Sidious - one must remember that that identity was only one facet of his personage. As Senator (later Chancellor) Palpatine he commanded great respect from all who knew him as one of the Republic's finest statesman and the champion of democracy.
Personally he's me favourite so instantly gets respect from me. With my guidance he could go far...
Yoda gets the respect he deserves, but to me anyway, Vader and Mace are close, Vader because he is the greatest villian of all time, to the point that you hate to see him lose to some kid half his age, and Mace because, i don't know, i think i would like to see all the Jedi having his attitude.

Anyone with a big fanboy following also has people that hate them because of the fanboys. I am a Sidious fan, but he obviously doesn't get respected. I don't like Yoda as much sinse Ep. 2 came out. I realize they had to show him kick butt, but I like the little part of Yoda that steals Luke's food and light, and hits artoo with a stick. He was the coolest guy ever. What I am trying to say is that Yoda used to have alot of quiet respect to him, but now people just say he would "pwn" everyone (I realize he would, but, people act differently about him).
Back on topic, whenever I think of old Obi Wan as General Kenobi I think he is so cool. Him and Han (everyone loves Han)are probably the most respected along with Yoda, but it's a new respect, one that I don't like.
