I was just thinking. shouldd we reprimand those who break rules here or just report them. I prefer the latter

A lot of bad blood gets created here when one member reprimands another for breaking rules or whatever. I prefer to report or gently bring it to the notice of the offender. What say?

Don't give rule breakers credit by replying to them. Just report them please.

I used to be in the 'reprimand them' group, but I'm honestly not sure where I fall at this point. Probably in the quiet reporters, because I just don't have the energy to waste on that sort of thing anymore. Not my circus, not my monkeys, you know?

Reprimanding always vitiates the environment here and so reporting takes care of everything.

Reporting a violation is the only sensible approach. We do not want the site to become riddled with spam or plagiarism, which would simply bring the site into disrepute, so the admin need to be alerted.
