I get the rules. What I don’t get is that most moderators think that their job is entirely one of enforcement. It’s not, it is moderating where necessary, which also means taking no action if none is required.
Which is pretty much what you seem to be doing, to be fair. That’s a good thing. It’s a human’s role to determine whether a line has been crossed or if they might just be dancing along the middle.
Not this community, but others, yes, absolutely. Always why you want to read the sidebar and see what rules are in place.

And that does happen, way more often than you might think.
Things get reported for no reason or bullshit reasons, we click “resolved” and move on.
