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.

My parents are fat, now i can only eat McDonald's and donuts. Okay whatever floats your boat. No one can convince me that people get magically fat without eating copious amount of calories with no means to burn it.

Genetics can make it very difficult for people to lose weight - my ex girlfriend was twice my weight even though we had similar diets - in fact. she arguably ate slightly healthier than me, and often less.
