A clown lubing the whole floor for an entire shift should just be ahelped, in my opinion. As the RP rules say, we're all here to have a good time. You should be considerate to your fellow players, and not strive to make the round worse as a non-antag. Being a clown is not a soft-grief free pass where your own fun comes before the experience of the whole station.
That being said, I don't really agree with the "it just gives sec a reason to take more drastic action right away" as that can just lead to escalating tension and frustration in a game where nobody ever gets the full picture. I've been blamed many times as clown for lubing incidents i've had nothing to do with, and I would not like sec to be like CLOWN CODE and be immediatly rude because of it.
I agree that there's a lot of bad clowns tough, and its frustrating because it gives even good clown this bad reputation. Sadly, I don't think there's much we can do about it short of ahelping them.
Freedom is a big part of the appeal to play clown, and I don't think those bad lubing clown would care about the clown code anyway. Even myself, I don't think I would follow most of those rules. I would certainly not honk at every joke and I had some pretty memorable moment in multiple clown rounds (bad ones too).
Also if you remove either your clown shoes, or your clown mask, even for survival, you are not going to Clownhalla. Think about it twice, the honkmother is watching
