 The selected answer didn't work for me on fully updated Ubuntu 12.04 LTS, so I decided it was time for a more drastic approach.

 Rename original gnome-terminal executable to gnome-terminal-original:

 cd /usr/bin
 mv gnome-terminal gnome-terminal-original
 Create a new file in /usr/bin named gnome-terminal with the following content:

 #!/bin/bash
 /usr/bin/gnome-terminal-original --maximize $@
 Make it executable:

 chmod +x gnome-terminal
 Now no matter how I open the terminal, it always opens maximized. The only downside I see for this approach is that you have to repeat these steps every time you might update gnome-terminal with a new version via update manager or apt-get upgrade.

 Note: the $@ parameter means that all arguments that might get passed to gnome-terminal will still get passed to gnome-terminal-original, along with --maximize argument.
