A fair amount of people including quite old profiles did the same. Reporting them at that time didn't produce a single post or a reply. The rise is because the mods let a few people off the hook. Rules should be same for everyone no matter your designation and ICF money & posts. Unfortunately, I don't see that happening here.

You can not possibly have people with full time jobs managing website with thousands of posts every day. And of course they dont get paid anything, if anything they have to pay the website maintanence fees. It is a weird model with those running the websites putting time, money and patience and posters not only enjoying it but also having a tremendous sense of entitlement.:((

At the same time, I feel there's always scope for improvement. There are a few posts which were much more abusive than the current ones and yet no action was taken. If the current model isn't working, we need to re-think the process. My 2 cents.

It's called arbitration. If one doesn't like it, one can take their keyboard elsewhere. It is not a democracy, and it really does not affect anyone's life.
