To answer you question, forums members will not be given infractions for reporting posts.

Hello,
As far as I understood it, the user was actually banned instead of the spammer. That was not intentional. Spammers have been all over the place lately, in large numbers. Things like that can happen, and all was cleared up. We do need the reports, as we cannot read every single post. Thanks for your help :)

That was my mistake. It was late at night. I clicked on the report. Usually I then click on the spam being reported and give an infraction to the spammer. I accidentally gave an infraction to the reporter instead of the spammer.
The infraction has been reversed, and I apologized in a PM to the reporter.
