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.

Imagine adding an extra layer of urban traffic above ground, made entirely of flying commuters with no pilot training. The horror.
I hope these things never get popular/cheap enough for people to buy them as a practical means of transport.
The noise alone should make them hard to use near homes. High rpm spinning carbon blades aside.
On the other hand thinking about all the vehicle traffic being electric flying vehicles and being able to walk/bike/breathe outside without worried about being squished. Being able to use all those roads for real vehicles.
We can make ground transportation waaaaaay better instead of having airborne apes held aloft by spinning blades
