Aug 2, 2017 at 21:53 comment added Mysticial @Shog9 It could work the other way. If it encourages help vampires to turn the question into a chameleon, you just ignore them or apply some sort of exponential back-off in responses to get them really frustrated and hopefully they'll give up. Otherwise, they'll just keep spamming the front page with new questions until they're banned as I they're probably doing right now.
Aug 2, 2017 at 19:56 comment added Travis J My point was that this would serve to encourage them. If nothing discourages them then they definitely are not in need of encouragement. Perhaps it is only an edge case, however when you suggest fundamentally changing a central piece of the way the site works it has a widespread result.
