My guess is that it's just an equation of energy input and time spent. Is it worth removing the problem comments if they keep coming back? How much time as a mod are you willing to spend removing and banning people like that? I can understand taking the approach they did. Personally, I think maybe just locking the thread would've been a better compromise. But I'm not a mod here nor would I want to be lol
Is it weird I hope its due to laziness? Like I get it, moderating a potential dumpster fire and all, but it does give a lot of power and potential for bullying content.
