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.

Yeah, but at least the city has increasingly-decent bike infrastructure.

Kinda depends on the city, but yeah some places are improving a bit.

No, I mean the City of Atlanta specifically is doing better, especially inside or within about a mile outside of the Beltline. I basically don't drive anymore unless I'm going somewhere like Buckhead or OTP.
