Some members are complaining about "wait, you want ME to clean up this mess?" when it comes to their Experience Tools. Makes me laugh.
We ninja have been doing our damndest for them for years and now that they see and have to pick up after themselves, do they appreciate what we did for the..... wait, this is "the parent rant" isn't it?
Nevermind. Actually, no. Feel free to discuss.
I remember when I was a member, I was eager and would have nearly crapped myself if I had been given a tool that not only took disruptive members out of my site (immediately) but my use of it combined with others to eventually get that disruption off of the site (public and private) altogether? Oh, I would have been thrilled.
People complained that "the report system didn't do anything" when they didn't SEE a post immediately hide. Now that it does, they don't seem to want to have to do it. "Someone ELSE should be doing this, making MY experience what I expect."
For those of you who see these tools for what they are (unprecedented power to the people) thank you. Your silent and valuable efforts populate our workqueue, take people out of your sight and the sight of others, and for that, THIS fellow member is grateful. Thank you.

So... uhh... what are you guys are here for then? We hide posts, and apparently hid posts are put into a report queue. Why even have mods? Just make it an automated system. Tons of problems would come with that, I guess. But still, why have so many ninjas? Might as well just have 5 or so instead of the 20 or whatever there is right now.
