Yeah, ok, I accept the inconsistency. Which may be down to the fact that maybe the choice of moderators in the past was not correct.
But don't forget that they are not paid to do this. Not everyone can switch off their personal opinions when giving a decision. In an ideal world they could, but we don't live in one of those. Not everybody can remain clinical and emotionless with a decision. I can personally and I have many times, but I'm not a mod and don't wish to be one.
But, inconsitencies and good/bad moderating aside. It's not our board to do as we like. SOME form of moderation needs to be applied and I'm sure they do their best, even if it is not entirely logical at times. Bottom line is it's their decision, regardless if we agree or not. The best way to avoid getting into a situation that has the possibility for a ban is to remain polite and respectful of other peoples opinion, even if you disagree strongly.
