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.

Stop trying to make hubless wheels work. A normal bicycle wheel is stronger, lighter, simpler, and the bearings only have to handle the lower speed at the center of the wheel, instead of the speed found closer to the rim.
