Behavioral change is exactly what is needed. The simplest way to achieve that is education and buy-in. A good start would be to document the desired behavior, in an isolated php-dev subscription page, in the form of a _brief_ terms of use, and have new subscribers acknowledge and agree to it. There could also be a cooling off period, where new subscribers are read- only for the first NN days - that'll let tempers and hair-triggers cool off.
