I agree that OP could make more structured and elaborate threads, but I wouldn’t call him a clown or spammer for that much.
Might I remind you that you can just ignore him if you don’t want to see his threads? Like that those who wish to engage on those threads still can and you won’t be bothered anymore.
If OP break a community rule or a site wide rule, we will ban him, after warning him, but not otherwise.
But perhaps a good community rule would be to make threads that are conducive to discussion rather than single answers that can be found with a quick web search.
I don’t know how to properly word this, and I hope you don’t take it in a negative way. Is this not something you would want the entire communities opinion on? Just you and the mods going to decide what we want?
I think this would be a first. So there is no real methodology in place right now.
But I’d really like to get the community involved for the decision making, that’s something we’ll discuss internally, but in my opinion I’d like for it to work as following :
The community, LW admin, or the mods express the need for new rules <- We are here
Internal discussion between mods, and, if needed, LW admins, to make sure the new or updated rule is conform to LW rules and what we wish to do with the community.
Once the draft of the new rule is done, we’d publish it as draft to get feedback.
Once most people agree on the new or updated rule, we will start enforce it, first with a bit of leniency, then more strictly.

I do agree. I’ll raise the question with the others mods and we’ll decide on a new rule if necessary.

What do you think about that ?
