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 nice and all, but I'd much rather that cars simply stay the fuck away from me altogether while I'm cycling. They're absolutely miserable and dangerous to be around.

Well me too, I only pose it diametrically for comparison. Though I'm always cynically suspicious that regulations like this are in lieu of creating actual cycling infrastructure, or to justify putting off the construction of said infrastructure.
