Your identity is irrelevant to the comments that you make. You alone are accountable for your words and actions, and be judged on each independently, not in relation to your previous achievements.

Who the hell cares what you've achieved if all your comments are as condescending as this one? It just reeks of narcissistic bullshit and doesn't leave a good taste in anybody's mouth. No, you're not welcome. To be frank I don't give a shit what you've done if all you do is talk down to people assuming yourself to be some kind of internet deity. Mark Zuckerberg might have done a great deal to foster the growth of social networking, but do people really care for the hypocritical bullshit that comes out of his mouth? That's you.

Now rinse your mouth and start over.

Edit: Also, you'd be sorely mistaken if you feel respect is given because you've done something worthwhile. Every little bit of respect is earned, and all that sum can be easily destroyed in the flash of a second if you don't respect your audience. If you're here because of Reddit, just look at it - perfect example.
