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 love when the value of stolen goods from a company is always based on selling price, and not actual cost to produce.

But for regular folk, the value of an item is depreciated into oblivion when you have to report it as stolen to your insurance company!
