Am not saying nothing about HIVE/LEO can be posted, but we shall keep it to very low quantities. I prefer those who really have to say something sensible, can post from time to time :)
So you are saying it should be controlled and we should censor what is posted on here?
Who decides who is exceeding the appropriate quantities?

Hmmm, why are such statements I make about Culture often turned into harsh words as censoring and who decides what goes or not?
Think of this: Any community, however small or large it is, physicial or digital, has a certain set of values. I would even say, a community needs a certain set of values.
Here at LEO (and HIVE) we have some of those values set in stone by having it programmed into the blockchain. Other values that are difficult to program into the blockchain (or maybe even impossible to program at this stage) have been articulated in the whitepaper (like no spam, no copy/paste, etc) and at least part of the community support those values by supporting teams (and individuals) who took on the task to moderate content accordingly.
I very much believe in establishing a set of values within a community. These values define our community. It'll be a guideline, not only for us, but for the newcomers as well. Certainly, no single individual has to follow these guideliness, but I predict that when we create such common community values and articulate them clearly, many will follow them, since I believe many people like to be part of something that is kinda defined. This will drive the growth of a community, and I believe it'll also drive 'good' behaviour, whatever this 'good' behaviour is.
To the topic: "How to define such set of values?" It would be great if this can be done in some democratic manner. We can think of many ways how to establish this, but community voting shall be part of it. We don't have all the tools available the get this implemented today (or we need to missused the HIVE DOA for his, or use dPoll in one or the other way); We don't even have the governance to establish values, not on HIVE not on LEO. But I think we shall start thinking about this more seriously.
I like to re-iterate, in all what I'm trying to bring across, nothing is mandatory, it's all voluntary.
Coming back to the less LEO posts and more OTHER posts: This can be the result of one of our values we agree to, which could be something like: "We want to embrase the world", "We want to be all inclusive in the Financial segment" or some value like that. What you think when outsiders having a glance at LEO and see lots and lost of LEO posts will actually think? No investor likes internal focused behaviours.
I really believe that Cultures can be created, driven and altered (we see this in real life in all communities and societies we know). And I believe Cultures drive good behaviour ('Good' in relation the the Culture itself). That's in a nutshell what I try to bring across.
I also believe, the Lack of Culture, will drive abusive behaviour. And abusive behaviour will destroy a community. And when a community is destroyed, it has no value, hence the connected monetary tokens, will have no value whatsover.
