There is a big difference between not wanting to read something, and not reading something. I did NOT say that moderators wouldn't read the reports. I DID say that moderators who weren't interested wouldn't WANT TO read the reports. If it helps to clarify the difference, I'll bet that there's at least one textbook that you don't want to read (because you aren't interested in that class, or for some similar reason)--but you read it anyways (at least, I hope you do). I know I'm that way about some topics.
And I'd rather not have a moderator who doesn't at least have a passing interest in that forum topic doing the moderation. Then we get the discussions about how Chit-Chat and the Rumor Mill need to be removed vs the cluttering of General with those same topics because they have no home now (because the mods decide to put it out for discussion). Yes, there has been discussion on those lines before.

I do understand the distinction. What mainly lead me to believe what that you you were saying was that moderators would not take care of the reports for certain boards was:

We can continue this conversation in the PMs, but I do want to make sure the air is cleared. This lead me in the direction of thinking that you were saying that moderations would not check the reports for those sections. As such, I offered solutions to the problem I thought you were stating.
The situation is simple: I misinterpreted what you were saying. If it felt I was putting words in your mouth, I'm sorry.
