I imagine the infraction system is a much easier method of moderating (granted, I'm sure it also leads to mistakes or unfair judgements on occasion too), but I dunno, what you've described sounds like it would take a lot of mod time that isn't really available, and considering the size of the site would it be worth introducing a whole new administrative process?

It depends on the situation, but in some cases, I've had to modify the forum internally to accommodate for lack of staff. I've gone as far as to modify language/add language/behavior of code to code if needed to make things clearer (some systems make it easier than others)... but again, we don't know the situation with TiBB staff and how many are available to do the job and what is technically feasible with the forum itself as they are running on an older version, so plugins may not even be compatible (though vB is pretty common)... my comments are more consultative rather than critical given there's those unknown circumstances. I think that your concerns are very fair.
