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.

As an American immigrant among the English, I have never seen a deliverer pedal their bike in my LIFE. We're not even talking about changing what happens, we're talking about reducing the burden on the police.

They're too busy putting the boot in on people who don't like genocide, so I get it.
