I'm sorry you feel unsupported and have a question about how we deal with reported posts that seem to violate our community guidelines. I hope I can help answer your questions...
We do not "allow" things just because we don't respond to a thread. Threads and posts need to be reported by a member in order for us to take action. With over 1,000 new posts a day, that is the only way we know something needs looking into.
We do not reply back, in most cases, to the member who reports a thread or post. Instead, we discuss it among the team, and take action if we believe action is warranted because the post or thread violates our community guidelines. If you were not the OP of the thread, it is likely you will not hear from us (because in any good sized thread, there may be dozens of different posters; we simply don't have the resources to notify each member about what happened in that thread).
We do remove posts and threads that are unsupportive or seen as "attacking" another member. A difference of opinion isn't considered an attack in most cases, and others who disagree with the member who has a difference of opinion are of course welcomed to also express their opinions in the matter (as long as everyone does so respectfully).
Recently a thread you contributed to was removed after your report, because there were a number of posts to that thread that violated the community guidelines. You were not the OP, so you were not notified of this action.
We have no record of you asking anything by PM to anyone on the team, I'm sorry to say. You're welcomed to PM me anytime and I'd be happy to discuss this in greater detail in private.
Hope that helps clarify our policies and how we take action.
Best,
DocJohn
