I haven't taken a screenshot since I started playing again (unless you count the one of me shooting Pueblo with a CSV) and I haven't been sanctioned yet.

I dont take screen shots to report other ppl but just to protect my self if they report me
To be quite frank, the rules are not that hard to memorize and keep them in mind when playing. Most of the sanctions you see are from people who hardly read the rules or didn't care about them. I believe the problem is that people often go for sanctionlancering without even considering PMing the rule violator and straighten out the situation in a brief and uncomplicated manner before posting a report and therefore strain the admins with more bureaucracy.
Another matter is the lack of information. People who newly joined the server are often not aware of the forums, let alone the rules. It took me three months to reach the forums.
And the comparison you made with the Gestapo is actually a serious accusation and in this case in no way applicable, imho.
The admins process the reports they get. If you think there are too many sanctions then really you think there are too many reports. I can agree with that.
If people would simply respect the 0.0 rule ("Be excellent to eachother") there'd be a whole lot less sanctions. People who play fair have nothing to fear. People who decide to be arses to other players can expect little to no leniency.
Personally I call that justice.
