    It's almost a testament to how toxic the community is that even under SE's prison camp leadership that this communities toxic elements were still so pervasive when given a little motivation. One pseudo-celebrity playing for a couple of days and people are willing to lose their accounts just to be jerks; it definitely says something about this community.
    The GMs are as only as good as the community that is proactively reporting the behavior. The GMs aren't going around and checking the logs of absolutely everyone with no apparent reason, they're being reported, and they're being reported by the players. So yes it reflects just as well on the community when they show how unwelcome they find this behavior in-game, by, you know, sending a report into GMs. Given how some people on the forums, and on the game would have you believe that you can be reported for merely having a pulse and clanging your fingers on the keyboard I would say both the community and the GMs are doing a good job. But alas when someone gets banned we're all just soft little plushie babies with a snowflake complex that doesn't tolerate any form of harassment.

    You'd find this behavior practically prevalent on any game that is being played by an established streamer, that's the cost of being a streamer, especially a well-known one. Every game has toxic circles of communities, that is at least true. But to give the community overall no merit whatsoever is just silly. People were banned for it, quite a lot of people also seemed to find the behavior largely unwelcoming, and I would daresay people probably arranged groups for mass reporting those that were attempting to sabotage his experience.
