If I were to become a moderator of the P&S sub, I would not moderate as Twitter does, but rather would moderate as a neutral party "down the middle".
I'd go full Switzerland on the board, but I don't want to waste my time reading political discussions.
I enjoy reading about politics, and I enjoy talking about politics. Everyone has their own biases. I would however be fair to everyone.
You're misusing the trust system against users for expressing opinions different from yours. I don't think you would have any qualms about misusing a moderator's position.

You must not be able to read.
Neutral - Other comments.
How exactly are my
other comments abusing the trust system? My comments are quite literally exactly how the trust system is intended.
Banning someone, means that someone is being removed from the community. Theymos wants to remove someone from the bitcointalk community, only as a last resort, even for people who cause problems for theymos personally.
There was a time in which I used to
look for threads/posts to report and acclimated a decent number of reports doing so. I don't think that is the intended way that reports should be made. I think it is best to report threads and posts as you are browsing the forum as if you would be if you were not going to report any threads/posts.
Those campaign managers are earning money for their tasks, but their employers are the ones who are really responsible for the spam. The managers themselves have an obligation to preserve the quality of the forum, but they don't seem to concern themselves with the preservation of the opportunity, the opportunity that wouldn't exist if wasn't granted by the forum, not the shady outfit for whom they work.
I think the businesses themselves should be called out publically when they employ (via crappy signature campaign managers) people who make a lot of low effort posts. If a business wants to stop criticism about the harm their advertising is doing to the forum, they will need to get their campaign manager to do a better job at policing campaign participants, or if the campaign manager is unable, or unwilling to do so, the company will need to find another campaign manager.
