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.

got it. i'm sure next time you crash your car you'll tell the barrier that preventing you from flying off the roadway into a ditch and dying... that it was elitist and shouldn't have prevent you from doing that. because the traffic engineer who installed it is a jerk or something, and you know better.
