While I agree in principle, I think we are likely to get pretty good
results from an occasional post of a brief list of suggestions, and that
would probably be sufficient. Rather than optimising how people post, I
would be happy simply to stop the recent flood of lazy top posting.

The problem is that I'd need a long paragraph to explain "inter
posting", and once a set of rules exceeds a paragraph it become somewhat
self-defeating.
