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.

0 labour cost here. I buy the tools and do any work myself...its part of the enjoyment of cycling for me, since autos went so electronic/computerized that the old shade tree wrenching has all but died.
I ran into a biker one weekend morning as I walked my flat tired bike into our apartment building. He was heading out, and said "oh know bummer, and the bike shop is closed till Monday". I said it was no problem I was just coming back to change the tube/tire myself. He looked at me like this was some new mystical revelation to his brain.
I do a lot of work myself too, but there are things I go to the LBS for help. Either it requires a very specialized tool or I am too weak to remove/install some parts
