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.

I hate it when they do this, happens all the time in my city after big events.
PSA: If you rent a bike or scooter, don't put it in the bike rack. The rack is for people who need to lock their bike up. You can leave your rental scooters or bike next to the bike rack, in another out of the way place, or best of all in a rental dock so it can recharge, but there's no reason to use the rack if it's not your bike and you don't need to lock it up.
