Should've seen back when we alway had 200 players in game regularly. Gheis and I doing 11 hour sanction grinds while hungover pretty much summed up those glory days. Even amongst all that more reports got tossed out the window then being processed for sanctions. One can lose count how many times a player tries to use the staff as their own personal weapon or themselves not knowing the rules or simply has too thin a skin to ignore when another player's opinion triggers them in some vague way. This is the Internet and people tend to behave like asshats when the consequences are as virtual as their actions. But when all is said and done there is no mistaking that most violation reports never needed to be filed, incidentally becoming an opportunity to teach someone the rules.
Another detail to consider is that the administration are wading hip deep in work. Server maintenance, lost accounts, faulty installations, player requests, faction requests, activity tracking, forum maintenance, srps, events etc etc...ad infinitum....I can tell you from experience that processing sanctions is an incredibly annoying distraction from running the server and the administration aren't swinging hammers for the fun of it.
It's not a players vs administration thing happening it's a people on the Internet thing that's happening.
