Would it work to just let people know that only a small number of posts will be promoted in any one period and just let them decide themselves whether to therefore wait to post later?
That does sound like a sensible solution. I like the idea of keeping the quality up and the volume down. I struggled just keeping up with Eleizer’s posts! However, Aaron does have a good point when it comes to the problems when it comes to formal restrictions.
The most obvious difficulty would be with the “Where anything that gets voted to 0 or below doesn’t count”. I just do not like such a direct temptation for bias in the posting system.
That makes a lot of sense. Anyone object to that?

If they are useful, shouldn’t you be glad to hear objections?
I don’t like it. Maybe you could give the submitters the option of allowing their post to be delayed in exchange for a better chance at promotion?
No, that’s the policy that I was expecting.
