Right! I was just interpreting this bit below. Maybe just a short period of mod intervention would set the standards straight. An even us Steam/AMZN thread regulars sometimes have difficulty keeping up with the thread. So if I think I'm being asked to use the reporting button on such posts, I will.

As for more moderation, the mods would be happy to clean up a thread if it gets reported. We can't be in every thread at once. Obviously if a thread has hundreds if not thousands of pages, we can't clean up the whole thread, but I usually try to take care of the last couple of pages.
