Well, I hope you’re right because I’d feel bad if someone tried to write something useful for us and it was so bad the comments are just speculation about whether the person is a spammer.
I’ll keep on assuming people are actually trying though and try to provide constructive feedback and encouragement because the demand for LW posts outstrips supply. Even if the person is a spammer, perhaps being more encouraging and constructive will make others who are hesitant to post more comfortable. And if the person is not a spammer, they can use the feedback to improve on their next post and hopefully iterate until their posts become really good.
