This. The mods on these forums tend to favor the people who report, rather than actually looking into the situation in full. I still remember awhile back when a rather vile topic was posted and instead of giving a ban to the OP, they temp- banned the people who posted anything mildly mean and or off-topic that upset said OP. A good swath of the forum was temp-banned for two weeks and the offending topic only went down a few days later after people finally started reporting it. Course that whole thing was another kettle of fish and many of the off-topic temp-bans were in retrospect justified, I was one of them, but the point is that the pattern for mods on this forum is pretty cute in dry. Did someone report a topic or post? Then we'll look into it. A topic is getting wildly out of hand but no one reported it? We're not going to be proactive or step in to try to tell people to follow the rules.
