It's a little sad that we need to actually say this, but:

Don't be an asshole or you will be permanently banned.

Respectful debate is totally OK, criticizing a product is fine, but being verbally abusive will not be tolerated.

Focus on discussing the idea, not attacking the person.

Imagine how dangerous it would be if motorbikes didn't make that annoying whine. Those derestricted exhaust manufacturers are doing the lord's work by alerting everyone to the presence of a bald and freshly divorced middle aged man in an ill fitting leather jumpsuit.
