Suggested new rule: each user is allowed to make only 1 meta thread per week.
How about zero?
Perhaps pre-approval of users for the priviledge by moderator? Now that antonio isn't in the mod team (here), I can't count on the mods to make a meta thread when it's needed. We haven't actually needed one in a while, so I do agree that we shouldn't be seeing the meta threads that have been popping up - most of the time it's one user getting called out or some dumb argument getting blown up. I wouldn't want to ban such threads because it's one of the few recourses if a mod starts being a problem.
Meta threads are also the acceptable channel for challenging the rules in the sidebar, since an open discussion promotes understanding for everyone.
