I think we've discussed ad nauseum how people are afraid to request sanctions against other users because of the perceived (and real) threat that the arbcom will turn it against the person bringing the case.
Name a case where that happened.

Even in cases where the petitioner is ultimately cleared, arbitration requires an arduous defense. For people that would rather, say, work on wikipedia, arbitration is a hassle. No sane individual would want to draw fire from a troll who wants nothing more than to launch spurious attacks.
I suppose I should make public what has always been an implicit fact here, and note that I am willing to, assuming, in my judgment, the case has merits, raise any case to the arbitration committee. Contact me via e-mail if you have a specific problem user you think needs to be dealt with and don't feel you can deal with. I can't guarantee I'll deal with it immediately (I can only manage evidence on so many arbcom cases at once), but if the case has merit, I will submit it on your behalf.

If you find yourself too busy (and always assuming arbcom can handle the caseload), I would like to volunteer to handle some of the evidence phase. I have experience of preparing concise, useful evidence for arbcom.
Anyone can add evidence to an arbcom case. Concise presentation of evidence that is significant would be welcome in any arbcom case.
