I can't remember ever saying respect had to be earned. Sounds like anyone could have said it, ya know, as a throw-away. Sounds like history, whatever it is. Sounds like stuff we're not even talking about.
But if you do ask me what I've done to earn your respect, I'm not gonna say "I started a message board." I'm gonna say "I started a message board that you post on." All the remaining logic and forethought and decency and intuition and common sense should fall into place from there.
