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.

In Finland you're allowed to park mopeds where ever you're allowed to park bikes aswell (as long as it's outdoors)

When I was 15 and had my 50cc scooter I remember the 5 litre gasoline tank lasting me about a week. Yeah it's still burning fossil fuels but at that rate the emissions are quite insignificant. Being 4-stroke it was quiet too and didn't make my clothes smell like exhaust fumes.
