Some users seemingly having "protected" status

Hey @MNHQ

Why do some users seemingly have "protected" status on here?

There are some who regularly troll, post comments which are deliberately unhelpful at best, often rude, sarcastic etc. yet their posts almost never get moderated. However when anyone replies to them in a similar tone, or disagreeing with them, those replies get "moderated" almost instantly, with replies moderated out of existence merely by the nature of disagreeing with them?

Why are certain posters allowed to get away with almost anything, what is the reason that they gain this special status?

Thanks

Hi all, there are some posts on this thread that speculate about named users - that's not really in the spirit of the site so we've removed them.

OP, we're not aware of anyone having 'protected status' - if you think the guidelines have been broken then please report and we'll take a look. As always, if you have any concern about a post or poster (or moderation decision) then please report and we'll get back to you as soon as pos.
