I agree. I'm a mod on another forum. I'll take it to PM,which I've only had to do once, and basically explain what I'm having a problem with and why they need to stop it.
If they refuse,that's their problem.
I prefer to make a public comment to say "yes, I removed this" or "I've banned you, and here's why." I'm okay with having a longer conversation in PM to discuss it, but I feel that transparency in moderation is important.
