Quoting myself, from nearly eight years ago:

> Everyone is entitled to an opinion, true enough. What most people fail to realise is that they are not entitled to have that opinion taken seriously. The ability to bash out a few hundred barely coherent words and post them on the internet does not automatically make your opinion worthy. That respect has to be earned.

Still a useful things to bear in mind when interacting on the internet…
