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.

As a general rule, people "racing "on public roads is weird to me. Whether speeding cars, running on already crowded sidewalks or riding a bike, trying to go fast or hogging a means of transit (when running / riding in packs) where you are supposed to be careful of others seems off.
