I disagree that people need to be respectful in order to receive respect.

I feel we should be respectful of people here at MB whether or not they are acting respectfully. This prevents errors such as treating well-meaning people disrespectfully, and it also gives new members a positive example to follow.

I think if it's something that's important than you'll do it, and sooner or later you'll meet up with other people are respectful too.
