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.

Conversely, I've spent close to zero dollars total by employing the great trick of not maintaining my road bike at all for years, and now the entire drivetrain needs replacing.

I certainly should not have done this. I imagine it'll be quite the price tag when I go to take care of it.
