Fortunately or unfortunately, that is primarily the case. Different thresholds with different users at times aswell.

Also, its possible that many posts are never even read by a mod, that's what the "Report" button is for.
Indeed. I for one hardly visit the main mavs section of the site. simply because i dont have the time to keep up.

The community standards state:
"Vulgarity and Sexual Explicitness -- As a community with a diverse variety of members and readers, we ask that our members to post without using vulgarity. Vulgarity not only includes vulgar language and pictures but also sexist, racist, anti-religious and homophobic language which may offend other members. In addition, the "masking" of vulgarity by inserting * or another keystroke in place of one or more letters in a vulgar term is acceptable in most cases. However, all uses of vulgarity are open to editing or deletion by moderators. We realize that there's a "grey area" of judgment with vulgarity but we ask that you'll respect others by avoiding vulgarity and our right to determine what constitutes it and take appropriate action. "
