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.

And for whoever they crash into as well... While I do think power limits for eBikes are a bit too low here in Europe, I gotta say I'm glad we don't have death machines like that thing rolling around on our trails.
It'd be nice to have a robust system of e-bike classes that's commonly accepted everywhere without being underpowered and license/training required for stuff that gets into motorcycle territory. In the US, they just classify them as "offroad vehicles" but in some places lots of people ride them on footpaths, which gets all e-bike riders in trouble with the public.
