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.

Bicycle/Ebike > Car for me

Skateboard is in there somewhere too, but it is heavily mood dependent.
