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.

How hard are they to ride? The compactness and range of it looks kind of great but it seems like it would have a steep learning curve.

I'll let you know when it gets here on Monday. But it really doesn't seem that bad:

Yeah, I feel like I'd kill myself trying to ride an EUC haha. I kind of want to get a Monowheel but they are expensive: For that much I would probably just get a nice ebike.

Lol I can't help but think about that episode of south part where the teacher invents one of these.

I bet it's fun though
