Quit being dramatic. If revenge were my intent I'd have made a thread for you. My point is merely our own moderation is necessary if it doesn't come from above, and by so doing I thought a small scale ban might illustrate how unpopular certain actions are.

I am not being dramatic. I am just being reasonable.

And my point is that "own moderation" is already available within the scope of ignore list. I believe that major offenders (such as spammers) are already being banned even within the "Off Topic" section.
