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 how venomously pendantic this exchange is.

Likely: having a high probability of occurring or being true : very probable

So it's subjective.

7% chance to have your face ripped open, do you consider it to be likely enough to take it into consideration when buying a helmet? If you had a 7% chance to crash every time you ride would you continue riding?
