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.

That's a lot cheaper than the laughable $1 + 45 cents per minute Lime is charging for their bikes where I live... $28 for the first hour. HA HA

That's crazy, might as well buy your own scooter for that much.
