Those self-scan kiosks would be a lot more interesting if they had a glass dome up top and flappy arms and cried out "Danger Will Robinson!" whenever they got confused by produce.

I have come to the conclusion that when it comes to mods and how they respond is based entirely on who gets reported and what that person does in other parts of a forum.
For example, say a major gaming company's forum has an off-topic section, and Person A post a long post about video games but has also contributed a lot to the main area of the companies forum, Person B then posts the same thing as A but a mod comes along and says that's more of a post for a blog.

When people post comments like this, where I'm a mod, I usually truck out a little anecdote:I have come to the conclusion that when it comes to mods and how they respond is based entirely on who gets reported and what that person does in other parts of a forum.

A man was speeding down the highway and felt secure due to the fact that most of the cars on the road were also travelling at the same speed. However, as he and the other cars passed a speed trap, the man was nailed by an infrared speed detector and was eventually pulled over by a policeman. The cop then handed the man a citation, received his signature, and proceeded to walk away but was stopped by a question.
The man asked the officer why he was the only one that got a ticket even though many other cars were going as fast as he was.
The cop replied by asking if the man had ever gone fishing, and in response, the man said he had gone fishing in the past. The officer then smiled and added:
"Did you ever catch them all?"

How would you respond if I said "I also reported Person A's post? which I have done.
EDIT: I also suspect that Person A is also the mod

I'd say that reporting it was the right thing to do and can't speak to the rest.
I assume some of you have found some regular posters who essentially never say anything you find worth reading on any thread. If you've blocked them, how strange is it to read threads they're participating in? Is the time saved not having to read or imagine responses worth the hassle of trying to follow what's happening?

"Well you see, those cars are driven by friends of mine, and I like them, because we all hang out, and they always laugh at my jokes, and they never question what I say, because they understand that I'm always right, because I'm a police officer. And since I view the laws more as guidelines, and there is no real oversight to my power, I can do whatever I want."

I've wondered about that, as it seems like it'd become an issue pretty quickly.
