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.

Don’t you love clickbait? Let’s see what comes out first, but from the look of it it’s for the 1% only.

A $20,000 motorcycle is not a good first motorcycle, even if the power and weight are manageable.
