>>23628533Jannies don't follow up on reports 99% of the time. I honestly blame most of the issue on them. Yes banters could be doing more, but no one has the energy when half the board will just get spammed by frogs regardless of whatever they do.
I don't recall that Yonkers got bullied off, I thought he stayed here despite efforts to bully him off and later he left on his own because his own imageboard satisfied his autism better or something. Some people are just too autistic and un-self-aware for imageboards and there isn't much that can be done about them besides strong moderation, broadening whatever the current mod team's narrow definition of spam is. Even if you spam DT's threads with gore or whatever he'll just ignore them and continue as he usually does, because it doesn't really affect him. All he does is blogpost on his own; replies can't stop that. His autism is simply too strong. Faster boards get resident schizos too, but they don't quite meet /bant/'s fate because the speed just pushes away such threads, they don't get the chance to set up camp there.
