I have thought a lot about what you said, and you are right; you have a huge point about me not taking action when I should. I will do better in the future at enforcing the rules, but I think that, in some cases, giving a warning or a kick might not be effective.

For example, take these two scenarios.

1) Someone is having a very tough day and their emotions are being taken out over the chat. In this situation, even just giving them a warning could make the situation worse. Allowing the person to vent in private is the best option.

2) There is too much activity and too many people are at fault. Punishing everyone is a little pointless, as its just a temporary solution and won't cool down the drama itself. In these situations, its better to just stop the problem as it occurs. (kicking could help, but even that could cause some backlash)

Of course these situations happen a lot, so you can see why I dont often punish. However, I apologize for not taking action when I should, and promise to do better in the future.
