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.

I just ride around with a flame thrower and spray off a warning jet when cars get too close.

The pot holes are terrified of me because of the flame thrower, so they just get out of the way.

It's great fun, but I know I'm totally screwed if I crash.

Also, I'm pretty sure the tank hurts the range on my bike real bad.
