I guess you were right about the posting after part though.
Another question is this. If you quote improper behavior versus just reporting it, should your post be subject to the same rules?
EDIT: For instance a racial slur, or a link to warez.

It depends. Mostly, we just edit out links to warez sites or the real nasties. On the whole, we ditch the entire thread to Closed Topics.

Let's take the screenshot theory for a ride.
A a guy parked his car in front of my neighbor's house, blocking his driveway. The guy was there all of two minutes, but in that time, my neighbor goes out and clicks a picture of it (after having called the cops). The cops get there (quickly), but the guy is already gone. My neighbor proudly shows the digital pic, and guess what? The cops completely dismiss this "crime" and give my neighbor a tongue-lashing. True story.
Just as Pegasys (or whoever else) can take a screenshot, what's the difference to them when a mod intervenes? The "damage" is still done. Someone else may have read it already and given the info by PM (riiiight).
I think much of the reporting is so that people can feel that they are "special" to this site. They ride on the soapbox of "I'm making sure that this great site doesn't go down" so that it looks like their motives are noble. Your motives aren't so noble when you live in the Report thread (Bodyslide, et al.)
I tend to think like canadateck. Sometimes people make honest mistakes. They shouldn't be carded for doing the right thing and fixing it. We shouldn't always second-guess their motives and assume that their intent is malicious. Wouldn't that hold true for helping with "backups?" Should we also assume that anyone needing help backing up a DVD has rented that DVD? -
Supreme, give it a rest. You entered that thread for the sole purpose of having a go at me and offer nothing constructive to it, and now you purposefully try to rebutt and pick shit at my point of view. I clearly recall Bazooka copping a card for this exact same behavior not so long ago. Please stop being a troll
If in doubt, Google it. -
the rules are there and if people are stupid enough not to read them then tough crap. I don't normally read forum rules (does anbody?) as most forums have the same basic rules anyway
Like I said earlier most members will still have another 4 lives left and will lose the initial warning after 30 days. So what's the big deal about all this?
who cares who reports who as long as it's not personal or petty -

They are simply showing that they don't appreciate people's ignorance when breaking that rule, especially since it can be so potentially disruptive to this site. -

jim, calling someone a troll is not a very civil way to have a discussion. Neither is threatening the other party. -

Shadowmistress: The traffic anology was pretty good I thought. Now I am ready to dish out some real road rage!
IS IT SUPPOSED TO SMOKE LIKE THAT? -

That's how all my prose got hijacked!
I knew I was never capable of writing such completely useless dribble.
It's a conspiracy! I knew it! -

Thus that message when sometimes clicking on a "moved" topic. -

I made it darkblue to differentiate. ok? -
, I was just being a smart arse by showing the positive side of having the ability to edit a quoted post

In mod mode I tend to take things literally, it's a habit.
In real life I'm really a cool guy -

I am a young 37, thank you sir!
To put it into terms you understand I suggest
you go shunt your rolling stock!
You are in bad order and have obviously
reached your final mile post. It seems you
have been uncoupled from the start and
it's a pity your parents did not employ
Three-Step Protection. :P
